Description

The GLC-FE-100FX-RGD-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Cisco GLC-FE-100FX-RGD. This 100BASE-FX SFP transceiver is designed for plug-and-play operation in Fast Ethernet or dual-rate Fast/Gigabit Ethernet ports on Cisco Industrial Ethernet and SmartGrid switches and routers. - IEEE 802.3 100BASE-FX compliance ensures interoperability with standards-compliant equipment across industrial environments - SFP form factor, 100 Mbps data rate, 1310nm wavelength, multi-mode fibre, up to 2km reach via duplex LC connector - Industrial temperature range of -40 to 85°C for deployment in harsh outdoor and industrial settings where commercial-grade optics cannot operate - Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) support provides real-time access to temperature, voltage, and optical power parameters for proactive link management - Hot-swappable design allows installation and removal without interrupting network operations or powering down the host device - MSA compliant 20-pin edge connector and 1W maximum power consumption for compatibility with SFP-equipped platforms

Features

• IEEE 802.3 100BASE-FX standard compliance guarantees full interoperability with any standards-compliant Fast Ethernet infrastructure, whether from Cisco or third-party vendors, eliminating vendor lock-in at the physical layer
• Industrial temperature rating from -40°C to +85°C enables deployment in outdoor enclosures, factory floors, substations, and other harsh environments where temperature extremes, vibration, and dust would disable commercial-grade transceivers rated only to +70°C
• Digital Optical Monitoring exposes real-time transmit and receive power, temperature, voltage, and bias current via I2C interface, allowing network management systems to track link health trends, detect failing fibres early, and reduce mean time to repair
• 1310nm wavelength on multi-mode fibre provides 2km reach over standard OM1 or better MMF with 8.5 dB link budget, suitable for intra-building or short campus runs without requiring single-mode fibre infrastructure
• Hot-swappable SFP form factor supports field replacement and port reconfiguration without chassis shutdown, maintaining uptime during transceiver upgrades or troubleshooting in production networks
• SFP MSA-compliant 20-pin electrical interface and 1W power draw ensure physical and electrical compatibility with Cisco Industrial Ethernet switches, routers, and any MSA-compliant Fast Ethernet or dual-rate Gigabit/Fast Ethernet SFP port

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Cisco GLC-FE-100FX-RGD?
A: Yes. The GLC-FE-100FX-RGD-BCC is electrically and mechanically identical to the Cisco GLC-FE-100FX-RGD and provides the same 100BASE-FX interface at 100 Mbps over multi-mode fibre. It is plug-and-play compatible with any Cisco Fast Ethernet SFP port or dual-rate Fast/Gigabit Ethernet port that accepts the original Cisco module, with no configuration changes required.

Q: Which Cisco platforms support this transceiver?
A: This transceiver operates in any Cisco switch or router with Fast Ethernet SFP ports or dual-rate Fast/Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports. It is specifically designed for Cisco Industrial Ethernet and SmartGrid platforms that require the industrial temperature range. Consult Cisco's 100M Ethernet SFP Compatibility Matrix for detailed platform support, as specific platform families are subject to software and hardware revision.

Q: What multi-mode fibre types are supported for the full 2km reach?
A: The 2km reach specification assumes OM1 (62.5/125 µm) or better multi-mode fibre with an 8.5 dB link budget. Higher-grade fibres such as OM2, OM3, or OM4 will also work and may extend reach slightly depending on splice loss and connector quality. The minimum cable distance is 2 metres. Actual reach depends on total insertion loss of the fibre path, including connectors, splices, and fibre attenuation.

Q: Can I monitor optical power and temperature in real time?
A: Yes. This transceiver includes Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) accessible via the I2C interface on the SFP connector. DOM exposes transmit power, receive power, supply voltage, bias current, and temperature in real time. Most Cisco platforms expose these parameters through CLI commands or SNMP MIBs, allowing you to monitor link health and detect degraded optics or fibre before a link fails.

Q: What makes the industrial temperature rating critical for this transceiver?
A: The -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range allows this transceiver to operate in outdoor cabinets, utility substations, factory automation enclosures, and other environments where ambient temperature exceeds the 0°C to +70°C limit of commercial-grade optics. Industrial-rated transceivers use components and assembly processes that maintain stable laser output, receiver sensitivity, and DOM accuracy across the extended temperature range, preventing link flapping or failure during temperature excursions.
