Copper SFP for Cisco Switches

The Tripp Lite N286-01GLC-TE is a hot-swappable SFP transceiver that connects Cat6 copper cabling to a 10/100/1000 Mbps Cisco switch or router. It supports bi-directional Gigabit Ethernet communication up to 1.25 Gbps over distances up to 328 feet (100 meters). Network administrators can add copper ports without shutting down the network.

MSA-Compliant Build with Bail Clasp

The module is MSA-compliant and manufactured to meet or exceed Cisco GLC-TE specifications for functional equivalence. An RJ45 connector accepts standard Cat6 patch cables while the SFP end plugs directly into the switch. A bail clasp latch secures the transceiver and assists removal during maintenance.

Verify SFP Port and Cable Type

Confirm the Cisco device has an available SFP port that accepts 10/100/1000Base-T copper transceivers. The link requires Cat6 cabling rated for the 100 metre distance; lower category cables will not support the full range. No fiber cabling is used with this module.
