What this SFP module does

The STARTECH GLCLHSMDSTTA is a hot-pluggable SFP transceiver built for 1000BASE-LX/LH Gigabit Ethernet links. It operates at 1310 nm over single-mode or multi-mode fibre with an LC duplex connector. The module is fully compatible with Cisco GLC-LH-SMD equipment and meets IEEE 802.3z requirements. It suits network engineers extending campus or metro segments up to 10 km.

Installing and common pitfalls

The transceiver slides into any standard SFP port and is hot-pluggable, so the switch stays online during insertion. Always match the LC duplex patch cord to the fibre type in use; single-mode cable is required for the full 10 km reach, while multi-mode limits the link to 550 m. Clean the connector end-faces before mating to avoid excessive insertion loss. Verify that the host device supports 1000BASE-LX/LH and the correct wavelength.

Distance headroom and limits

On single-mode fibre the module delivers a 1.25 Gbps signal up to 10 km (6.2 mi). On multi-mode fibre the same wavelength reaches only 550 m (1804 ft), so longer campus runs need single-mode cable. Operating temperature spans 0 °C to 70 °C (32 °F to 158 °F), and storage extends from -40 °C to 85 °C (-40 °F to 185 °F) with 5–95 % humidity tolerance. Beyond the stated distances the optical budget is exhausted and errors rise sharply.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the transceiver is operating correctly after installation?

Check that the link LED on the switch port lights solid green and that the interface reports a 1.25 Gbps connection over the LC duplex single-mode fiber at 1310 nm.

What comes in the box and do I need to buy cables separately?

The package includes one SFP transceiver module only; you must supply LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cables to reach the 10 km distance.

Should I choose this model for a 550 m multi-mode run or a 10 km single-mode run?

This module supports both: up to 10 km over single-mode fiber and up to 550 m over multi-mode fiber at 1310 nm.
