Cabling and Specifications

The following SFP module options are available for a Gigabit Ethernet line card:

GLC-SX-MM—Short wavelength SFP module (850 nm nominal), for use in 1000BASE-SX links.

GLC-LH-SM—Long-haul or long-wavelength SFP module (1310 nm nominal), for use in 1000BASE-LX links.

GLC-LX-SM—Single-mode, long-reach

GLC-ZX-SM=—Single-mode, extended-reach (supported by 4-Port Gigabit Ethernet ISE line card only)

The SFP modules have LC connectors. Different SFP module options allow you to customize the physical interfaces on the line card by using both types of modules on the same line card. The only restriction is that each port must match the specifications on the other end of the cable (short or long wavelength), and must not exceed the recommended cable length for reliable communication.

Fiber-optic transmission specifications identify two types of fiber: single-mode and multimode. The maximum distance for single-mode installations is determined by the amount of light loss in the fiber path. If your environment requires the light to travel close to the typical maximum distance, you should use an optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) to measure the power loss.

Table 13 describes the operating parameters for the supported SFP modules.
