Cisco SFP-GE-L (mini-GBIC) Transceiver Module LC/PC

CISCO GENUINE. BRAND NEW. FACTORY SEALED. RETAIL BOXED. FULL CISCO WARRANTY. FROM CHICAGO COMPUTER SUPPLY

Overview

If you want stable 1G fiber connectivity with monitoring support, the Cisco SFP-GE-L= is a reliable choice. This SFP (mini-GBIC) transceiver supports 1000Base-LX and 1000Base-LH applications and delivers clean performance across enterprise switching environments.

It operates on single-mode fiber (SMF) for distances up to 10 km and can also support up to 550 m on multimode fiber, depending on the fiber type and setup. What makes this module even more valuable is its support for digital optical monitoring (DOM), which helps teams track optical health and troubleshoot more quickly.

If your network depends on reliable fiber links and you want visibility into performance, this module is a perfect fit.
