Industrial SFP Transceiver

The Brute Networks GLC-SX-MM-RGD is a 1000BASE-SX SFP module built for Cisco switches, routers and servers that need a hot-pluggable 1 Gbps link over multi-mode fibre. Network engineers and integrators use it to extend gigabit connectivity to 550 metres at 850 nm in environments where standard commercial optics cannot survive.

Multi-mode Distance Limit

The 850 nm multi-mode interface reaches 550 metres on OM2 or OM3 fibre; beyond that distance the signal degrades and a single-mode or extended-reach module is required. The LC duplex connector fits standard SFP cages, and digital optical monitoring lets the host device track received power, temperature and voltage in real time.

Rugged Build and Coding

An industrial temperature rating of -40 to 85 °C means the transceiver operates in unconditioned cabinets, outdoor enclosures or factory floors without throttling. MSA-compliant mechanical dimensions and Cisco-specific EEPROM coding allow it to initialise identically to the OEM part, so it can be mixed with genuine Cisco optics in the same chassis.

Questions about this item

Should I choose this rugged SFP or a standard 1000BASE-SX module?

Pick this rugged SFP when the switch operates between -40 and 85 Celsius; otherwise a standard 1000BASE-SX module is sufficient for normal indoor temperatures.

What does the 550m reach mean once the transceiver is installed in my switch?

The 550m figure is the maximum link length over OM2 multi-mode fibre at 850nm; shorter OM1 runs or patch-panel losses will reduce the practical distance.

What does the SFP MSA interface cap in practice for this module?

The SFP MSA slot limits the module to 1 Gbps Ethernet and an LC duplex connector; it cannot run 10 Gbps or accept SC or MPO connectors.
