Application & Reach

The Brute Networks SFP-GE-L is a single-mode SFP transceiver built for 1 Gbps Ethernet links up to 10 km. It operates at 1310 nm wavelength and fits any standard SFP cage that accepts Cisco SFP-GE-L compatible modules. Network engineers use it to connect switches, routers or media converters across campus or metro fibre runs.

Fit & Exclusions

This module suits teams extending Gigabit links over existing single-mode infrastructure where 10 km reach matches the route length. Buyers needing longer distances, higher data rates, multimode fibre support or different wavelengths should select a different module. The extended temperature range of -5 to 85 °C covers most indoor and outdoor cabinet deployments.

Deciding Specification

The 10 km maximum distance at 1310 nm over single-mode fibre is the parameter that determines whether this transceiver matches the link design. Verify the planned fibre path length and wavelength budget against this figure before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the SFP-GE-L transceiver ship with any cables or patch leads, or must I buy single-mode fibre separately?

The module is supplied on its own; you will need to source a duplex single-mode patch cord with LC connectors to complete the link.

The listing mentions 10 km reach and 1310 nm wavelength — are there other distance or wavelength options under this same model?

This specific SFP-GE-L variant is fixed at 10 km over 1310 nm single-mode fibre; other reach or wavelength choices carry different Cisco part numbers.

With a 1 Gbps rate and 10 km spec, what real-world throughput should I expect once the module is installed in a switch?

You will see full line-rate gigabit Ethernet across the 10 km span, provided the single-mode fibre plant and connectors meet standard loss budgets.
