Rugged SFP for Industrial Cisco Switches

The Cisco GLC-LX-SM-RGD= is a hot-swappable SFP transceiver built for Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fibre. It targets network engineers who need reliable 1 Gbps connectivity on Cisco IE 3000 Series switches, 3200 Series rugged routers or MWR 2900 mobile wireless routers. The module operates at 1310 nm wavelength using an LC duplex connector. It is not suited for multimode fibre runs or platforms that lack an SFP slot.

Verify Slot Type and Fibre Plant Before Ordering

Confirm the host device accepts an SFP form factor and that the link budget matches single-mode fibre at 1310 nm. The transceiver draws power from the switch port, so the chassis must supply the required current for hot-swap operation. Existing patch cables must be LC duplex single-mode; multimode cables will not work. No software licence is needed, but the switch IOS must support the 1000Base-LX/LH standard.

Hot-Swap Design Simplifies Field Maintenance

The plug-in module can be inserted or removed without powering down the switch, reducing downtime during upgrades or repairs. Its compact dimensions of 0.3" height, 0.5" width and 2.2" depth allow dense port population on rugged hardware. At approximately 0.17 lb the unit adds negligible weight to mobile or vibration-prone installations. The LC duplex interface ensures a secure, keyed connection that resists accidental disconnects.

Questions about this item

Does the Cisco GLC-LX-SM-RGD= transceiver ship with a patch cable or must I order the LC single-mode fibre separately?

The module is supplied alone; an LC duplex single-mode patch cable at 1310 nm must be purchased separately to complete the link.

My rack holds both Cisco IE 3000 switches and 3200 series rugged routers — can one GLC-LX-SM-RGD= serve either platform?

Yes, the rugged SFP is validated for IE 3000 series switches, 3200 series rugged routers and MWR 2900 mobile wireless routers, so a single spare covers all three device families.

What does the 1000Base-LX/LH rating mean for reach when the transceiver is installed in a live switch?

It specifies gigabit Ethernet over single-mode fibre at 1310 nm, supporting the standard long-haul distances defined for 1000Base-LX/LH optics.
