Description

The GLC-FE-100LX-RGD-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Cisco GLC-FE-100LX-RGD. This industrial-grade SFP is designed for Fast Ethernet and dual-rate Fast/Gigabit Ethernet ports in Cisco Industrial Ethernet and SmartGrid switches and routers. - Compliant with IEEE 100BASE-LX10 standard, ensuring interoperability with industrywide interfaces - SFP form factor operating at 100 Mbps over single-mode fibre at 1310 nm wavelength with duplex LC connectors - Reaches up to 10 km over standard single-mode fibre (G.652) - Industrial temperature range of -40 to 85 degrees Celsius for rugged outdoor and harsh environment deployments - Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) support providing real-time transceiver diagnostics - Hot-pluggable with maximum power consumption of 1 W

Features

• IEEE 100BASE-LX10 compliance guarantees interoperability with industry-standard Fast Ethernet interfaces and Cisco Industrial Ethernet platforms including IE2000, IE4000, and ASR920 series
• Industrial temperature range (-40 to 85 degrees Celsius) enables deployment in outdoor cabinets, utility substations, factory floors, and other harsh environments where commercial-grade transceivers cannot operate
• FP laser transmitter and PIN photodiode receiver at 1310 nm deliver 19 dB optical link budget, supporting up to 10 km over standard G.652 single-mode fibre with margin for splice losses and ageing
• Digital Optical Monitoring per SFF-8472 MSA exposes real-time optical power (transmit and receive), temperature, bias current, and supply voltage to SNMP network management tools for predictive maintenance
• Hot-swappable MSA-compliant design allows field replacement without powering down the host device, minimising network downtime during maintenance or upgrades
• Dual-rate capability supports operation in both Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) and Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports, provided the remote end operates at 100BASE-LX10

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Cisco GLC-FE-100LX-RGD?
A: Yes. This transceiver conforms to the IEEE 100BASE-LX10 standard and matches the Cisco GLC-FE-100LX-RGD in form factor, data rate, wavelength, and industrial temperature range. It is plug-and-play compatible with Cisco Industrial Ethernet and SmartGrid switches and routers.

Q: Which Cisco platforms support the GLC-FE-100LX-RGD-BCC?
A: This module operates in Fast Ethernet or dual-rate Fast/Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports on Cisco Industrial Ethernet switches (IE series), SmartGrid routers, ASR920 series, and other Cisco platforms with SFP slots that accept 100BASE-LX10 transceivers. Refer to the Cisco 100M Ethernet SFP Compatibility Matrix for complete platform details.

Q: Can I use this transceiver with multimode fibre?
A: This module is optimised for single-mode fibre at 1310 nm. While some 100BASE-LX transceivers can operate on multimode fibre for short distances (typically up to 550 metres on OM1/OM2), single-mode fibre is required to achieve the full 10 km reach and is the recommended cabling type for this application.

Q: What is the minimum fibre attenuation budget required for reliable 10 km links?
A: The module provides a 19 dB optical link budget. For 10 km over standard G.652 single-mode fibre (attenuation approximately 0.35 dB/km at 1310 nm), you will consume roughly 3.5 dB due to fibre loss, leaving approximately 15.5 dB margin for connectors, splices, and component ageing. This is sufficient for most properly installed links.

Q: Does the industrial temperature rating affect optical performance or link stability?
A: No. The module is designed to maintain full IEEE 100BASE-LX10 compliance and optical link budget across the entire -40 to 85 degrees Celsius operating range. Laser bias and receiver sensitivity are temperature-compensated. DOM parameters allow you to monitor actual operating conditions in real time if environmental extremes are a concern.
