Description
Part Number
Cisco 1000BASE-SX SFP module for MMF, 850-nm
wavelength, extended operating temperature range.
GLC-SX-MMD
Cisco 1000BASE-SX SFP module for MMF, 850-nm
wavelength, extended operating temperature range.
SFP-GE-S
1 A mode-conditioning patch cord, as specified by the IEEE standard, is required. Using an ordinary patch cord with MMF, 1000BASE-LX/LH
SFP transceivers, and a short link distance can cause transceiver saturation, resulting in an elevated bit error rate (BER). When using the LX/LH
SFP transceiver with 62.5-micron diameter MMF, you must also install a mode-conditioning patch cord between the SFP transceiver and the
MMF cable on both the sending and receiving ends of the link. The mode-conditioning patch cord is required for link distances greater than 984
feet (300 m).
