What is GLC ZX SMD?

What is GLC ZX SMD?

This Cisco GLC-ZX-SMD compatible SFP transceiver provides 1000Base-ZX throughput up to 80km over single-mode fiber (SMF) at a wavelength of 1550nm using a LC connector. It is guaranteed to be 100% compatible with the equivalent Cisco transceiver. All of the transceivers are Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliant.

Is GLC-LH-SMD single-mode?

GLC-LH-SM vs GLC-LH-SMD Similarity—Both Cisco GLC-LH-SM and Cisco GLC-LH-SMD transceiver modules are compatible with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX/LH standard. They operate on standard single-mode fiber-optic link spans of up to 10km and up to 550m on any multimode fibers. They can be used interchangeably.

What is ZX SFP?

Product description. The Cisco 1000BASE-ZX SFP Module is an industry-standard Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Gigabit Interface Converter that links switches and routers to the network.

Is GLC SX MMD single mode or multimode?

Standard. GLC-SX-MMD, compatible with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX standard,operates on legacy 50 μm multimode fiber links up to 550 m and on 62.5 μm Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)-grade multimode fibers up to 220 m.

When was the Gigabit Ethernet network developed?

1988
Explanation: The Gigabit Ethernet (Gbe) network was developed in 1988. It was developed by merging two technologies namely 802.3 Ethernet and ANSI X3T11 fiber channel.

Is the GLC-ZX-SMD a good transceiver?

The GLC-ZX-SMD is a wonderfully versatile transceiver. I would have spent much more on a similar Cisco transceiver, but this one works just as well. And it’s compatible with Cisco products too, so I don’t think we’ll lose anything by going for the slightly cheaper route.

What is the minimum attenuation for the GLC-ZX-SM?

Note For the GLC-ZX-SM, the minimum attenuation between the transmit bore (TX) and the receive bore (RX) is 8 dB. When using shorter distances of single-mode fiber cable, you might need to insert an inline optical attenuator in the link to avoid overloading the receiver.

Does the GLC-GE-Dr-LX SFP interoperate with other 100m SFPs?

The GLC-GE-DR-LX SFP can interoperate with other 100M SFPs/interfaces as long as those are based on 100BASE-LX10 standard. A 5dB attenuator is needed on the path of dual-rate SFP Tx and 100BASE-LX10 interface Rx. No attenuator is needed on the other fiber strand.

What type of SMF does the Cisco glc-bx80-d-I SFP operate on?

The Cisco GLC-BX80-D-I and GLC-BX80-U-I SFPs operate on a single strand of standard SMF. A GLC-BX80-D-I device is always connected to a GLC-BX80-U-I device with a single strand of standard SMF with an operating transmission range up to 80 km.
