Network Transceiver for Gigabit Ethernet

This Cisco SFP transceiver module provides a single RJ-45 port for 10/100/1000Base-T connectivity over twisted pair cabling. It operates at a 1 Gbps transfer rate for data networking applications. The module follows the mini-GBIC form factor for hot-swappable installation in compatible Cisco switching equipment. It is designed for network administrators expanding copper-port density.

Upgrading from Fast Ethernet or Empty Slots

The transceiver replaces 10/100 Mbps copper modules or populates vacant SFP ports to deliver gigabit speeds to endpoints. The jump is worthwhile when link negotiation must reach 1000Base-T across existing Cat5e or better structured cabling. It supports the TCP/IP protocol suite for standard LAN traffic. Network engineers typically deploy it when bandwidth demands exceed Fast Ethernet capacity.

Verify Switch Compatibility Before Ordering

Confirm the target switch accepts the GLC-TE part number; the manufacturer lists compatibility with Cisco Nexus 7700 F3-Series, 9372PX and 9396PX platforms. Ensure an SFP slot is available and that the link partner auto-negotiates 1000Base-T over the twisted pair medium. No other copper media types are supported by this module. Check the switch software release for transceiver recognition.

Questions about this item

What switch port spacing does the RJ-45 connector on this GLC-TE module require?

The module uses a standard SFP cage and a single RJ-45 port, so it fits any switch that accepts mini-GBIC form-factor transceivers.

Which step is often missed when inserting this transceiver into a Cisco Nexus 9372PX or 9396PX switch?

The bail latch must click fully closed to seat the electrical contacts; a loose latch causes link flapping.

How can I tell when the copper RJ-45 interface on this transceiver needs replacement?

Persistent CRC errors, negotiated speed dropping to 100 Mbps, or a port that stays down after cable swap indicate the PHY is failing.
