Cisco 1000BASE-T SFP Copper Transceiver Module, RJ45, Extended Temperature

Extended temperature is the difference in the Cisco 1000BASE-T SFP Copper Transceiver Module, Extended Temperature, part number GLC-TE. It still presents an RJ45 connector at 1GbE with a 100 m reach, like the standard copper module.

Check the manufacturer's data on temperature range against your site's conditions. Extended-temperature parts are normally specified for cabinets or rooms that run outside the standard range, such as unconditioned wiring closets.

Use is the same as for a standard copper SFP: connect a copper-only device to a switch port that has an SFP cage, or reuse existing twisted-pair cabling. The E in the part number is the only marker, so it is important to keep the full number on your order.

The form factor is SFP. Host switches check the optics they accept, so confirm that your platform supports this part number. Copper modules also draw more power, and some hosts limit how many can be installed in neighboring ports.

The GLC-TE is offered new and refurbished. Both come with a choice of 1 year or 3 years of warranty. No used offer is listed. Send your quantity and platform when you request pricing.
