Cisco GLC-T Transceiver Module – 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Copper SFP
The Cisco GLC-T is a Gigabit Ethernet Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver designed to provide copper-based network connectivity through a standard RJ-45 interface. It supports 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet connectivity over Category 5 or better twisted-pair copper cabling.
The GLC-T provides a practical alternative to fiber-optic SFP modules when copper Ethernet infrastructure is already available. It supports distances of up to 100 meters, making it suitable for server connections, switch uplinks, LAN deployments, network extensions, and enterprise access networks.

Copper Ethernet Connectivity
The Cisco GLC-T converts an SFP slot into a 10/100/1000BASE-T copper Ethernet interface. This allows compatible Cisco networking equipment to connect directly to standard RJ-45 Ethernet cabling without requiring a separate fiber-to-copper media converter.
100-Meter Copper Reach
The GLC-T supports copper Ethernet connections of up to 100 meters when used with appropriate Category 5 or better twisted-pair cabling. Actual performance depends on cable quality, installation conditions, electromagnetic interference, and the connected network equipment.
Applications
- Gigabit Ethernet switch connections
- Server-to-switch connectivity
- Enterprise LAN deployments
- Network access-layer connections
- Data center copper connectivity
- Switch-to-server and switch-to-router links
- Network expansion using existing copper cabling
- Replacement of compatible copper SFP interfaces
Compatibility
The Cisco GLC-T is designed for compatible Cisco networking platforms with SFP ports supporting the GLC-T. Always verify the exact switch, router, or other Cisco platform and its supported transceiver list before installation.
The module provides an RJ-45 copper interface and should be connected using suitable Category 5 or better Ethernet cabling. The connected device should support the corresponding 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet speeds.
Installation and Deployment
As an SFP module, the Cisco GLC-T can be installed directly into a compatible SFP port. After installation, connect a standard Ethernet patch cable to the RJ-45 port and configure the network interface according to the requirements of the connected Cisco platform.
