Overview
GLC-LH-SMD complies with IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX and plugs into any Cisco Gigabit SFP port. It reaches 10 km on standard G.652 single-mode fibre and 550 m on 62.5 or 50 µm multimode fibre; on multimode links Cisco requires a mode-conditioning patch cord at each end. The duplex LC/PC connector does not accept APC patch cords.
The D suffix marks the version with DOM to SFF-8472, so the host can read transmit and receive power, temperature, laser bias and supply voltage. It is rated for the extended temperature range of -5 to 85°C, which suits most indoor and many cabinet installs. Check host support in Cisco's compatibility tables.
Typical uses
- Campus building-to-building links
- Switch and router uplinks over single-mode fibre
- Reusing legacy multimode runs up to 550 m
