The GLC-T-AO is a 1000Base-T SFP transceiver module that provides a Gigabit Ethernet connection over copper wiring, designed to be a 100% compliant and interchangeable alternative to OEM modules.
Yes, the GLC-T-AO is designed to be mixed and deployed with other OEM or third-party transceivers, ensuring seamless network performance.
It supports ordinary single-mode fiber-optic link spans up to 70 kilometers. This can be extended up to 100 km using premium or dispersion-shifted single-mode fiber, depending on fiber quality and other factors.
Yes, the module is hot-swappable, meaning it can be installed or removed from a network device without interrupting network operations or requiring a system reboot.
The GLC-T-AO is a 1000Base-T module, which primarily operates over copper Ethernet connections (RJ-45). The fiber distances mentioned (70-100 km) refer to the *potential* reach when used in conjunction with compatible optical transceivers if the switch supports mixed media or if this module is used in a specific bridging scenario, but its primary interface is RJ-45 for copper.
It is factory loaded with OEM-specific configuration data, which allows it to initialize and perform identically to the original equipment manufacturer's transceivers.
The module has dimensions of 13.7 mm (Width) x 71.1 mm (Depth) x 14 mm (Height).
Ensure the module is fully seated in the SFP slot. Try reseating the module. Verify the switch model is listed as compatible. If issues persist, try the module in a different SFP slot or on another compatible device.
Check that the fiber optic cable is securely connected to both the module and the remote device. Verify that the fiber cable is not damaged. Ensure the remote device is powered on and configured correctly. Confirm the link span is within the supported distance for the fiber type used.
Inspect the fiber optic cable and connectors for dirt, damage, or poor termination. Clean the fiber optic connector on the module. Ensure the link span does not exceed the maximum supported distance for the fiber type and the module's capabilities. Check for interference if using copper connections within the same bundle.
Setup: The GLC-T-AO module is designed for hot-swapping. To install, locate an available SFP slot on your network device, gently insert the module until it clicks into place, and ensure it is seated correctly. No software configuration is typically required, as it auto-initializes with OEM-specific data.
Compatibility: This module is compatible with a wide range of networking devices that support SFP transceivers, notably Cisco equipment such as the Cisco 7300, Catalyst 2940-8TF-S, 2970G-24TS, 3750G-24TS, 3750-24TS, 3750G-12S, Supervisor Engine 720, and WS-X6724-SFP.
Care: To ensure optimal performance and longevity, keep the module's connectors clean and free from dust and debris. Avoid exposing the module to extreme temperatures or humidity. Regularly inspect the fiber optic cables connected to the module for any signs of damage.
