LANVIEW Cisco GLC-T Compatible SFP Transceiver - 1000BASE-T RJ-45 Copper Module

Network engineers and IT managers constantly seek reliable, budget-friendly alternatives to expensive OEM optics without compromising performance. This LANVIEW SFP transceiver is engineered as a drop-in replacement for the Cisco GLC-T, delivering the same 1000BASE-T connectivity over standard copper cabling. Whether you are expanding a data center, connecting access switches to endpoints, or maintaining a campus network, this copper SFP module offers a practical, high-quality solution.

Key specifications

• Form Factor: SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable)
• Connector Type: RJ-45
• Interface: 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Maximum Data Transfer Rate: 1.25 Gbps
• Maximum Transfer Distance: 100 m (328 ft)
• Cable Type: Copper (Cat5e/Cat6 or better)
• DDM/DOM Support: Yes
• Hot-Swappable: Yes
• Power Consumption: <1.3 W
• Operating Temperature: 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F)
• MTBF: 3,000,000 hours

Why choose it

This transceiver is built to meet or exceed original OEM specifications while being fully MSA compliant. It supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) for real-time health monitoring, and it is hot-swappable to minimize network downtime. The low power draw of less than 1.3W makes it an energy-efficient choice for high-density environments. With a robust MTBF of 3,000,000 hours, this module is ready for long-term, continuous operation.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting switches to servers or storage devices in data centers
• Extending network reach in enterprise LANs using existing Cat5e/Cat6 cabling
• Replacing aging or faulty Cisco GLC-T modules without incurring high costs
• Integrating into any SFP slot for gigabit connectivity over copper

Good to know

This LANVIEW transceiver is specifically designed for compatibility with Cisco equipment, though it is also ideal for any MSA-compliant SFP port. It operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C, suitable for most indoor environments. No special configuration is required for most switches?just plug it in and it auto-negotiates. Always ensure your cabling meets 1000BASE-T specifications (Cat5e or higher) to achieve the full 100-meter distance.
