Intellinet Transceiver Module Optical, Gigabit RJ45 Copper SFP, 1000Base-T (RJ45) port, 100m, MSA Compliant, Equivalent to Cisco GLC-T, Ethernet, Fiber/Fibre, Three Year Warranty

The Intellinet Transceiver Module Optical GLC-T converts an SFP slot into a Gigabit RJ45 copper Ethernet port, providing a 1000Base‑T connection over standard copper cabling. The module is MSA compliant and presents the vendor part number GLC‑T to maximize compatibility with Intellinet and Cisco SFP‑equipped switches. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s, operates over distances up to 100 meters, and features a compact metallic enclosure with low power consumption.

Advantages

This hot‑pluggable SFP transceiver allows adding a 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 copper port without rebooting the switch, minimizing downtime. MSA compliance and the GLC‑T vendor identifier ensure broad compatibility with third‑party SFP slots, while the small form factor and low power draw make it suitable for dense networking environments. Certified to FCC Class B and CE standards and covered by a three‑year warranty.

Suitable for

• Adding a Gigabit copper Ethernet port to SFP‑enabled switches
• Mixed vendor networks including Cisco equipment
• Short‑range copper connections up to 100 m (1000Base‑T)

• Weight: 0.021 kg
• Compliance: MSA, FCC Class B, CE
• Manufacturer part number (MPN): 523882

How to use

Insert the Intellinet GLC‑T module into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch while the switch is powered on; the module is hot‑pluggable and does not require a reboot. Connect a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable to the module's copper port and to the remote device. The switch should enumerate the module automatically; if necessary, verify that the switch accepts third‑party SFP modules or is configured to recognize vendor PN GLC‑T.

Recommendations

Use Cat5e or higher cabling for Gigabit performance and keep cable runs within 100 meters. Avoid forcing the module into the SFP slot; seat it firmly until the retention mechanism engages. For mixed‑vendor environments, ensure firmware or switch settings permit third‑party SFP modules when required.
