Cisco GLC-TE Transceiver Module – 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Copper SFP
The Cisco GLC-TE is a Gigabit Ethernet Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver designed to provide 10/100/1000BASE-T copper Ethernet connectivity through a standard RJ-45 interface. It enables compatible Cisco networking equipment with SFP ports to connect directly to conventional twisted-pair Ethernet infrastructure.
The GLC-TE supports Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over distances of up to 100 meters using appropriate Category 5 or better copper cabling. Its extended-temperature capability makes it suitable for a broader range of deployment environments than standard commercial-temperature copper SFPs.

Copper Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity
The Cisco GLC-TE converts a compatible SFP slot into a standard RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interface. This provides a convenient way to connect Cisco switches, routers, and other supported networking equipment to existing copper Ethernet infrastructure.
100-Meter Copper Reach
The GLC-TE supports Ethernet connections of up to 100 meters when deployed with suitable Category 5 or better twisted-pair cabling. Actual performance can be affected by cable quality, installation conditions, electromagnetic interference, and the connected equipment.
Extended-Temperature Operation
The GLC-TE is an extended-temperature copper SFP designed for supported Cisco platforms where operating conditions may exceed the standard commercial-temperature range. This makes it useful for selected industrial, outdoor, infrastructure, and other demanding network deployments.
Applications
- Gigabit Ethernet switch connections
- Server-to-switch copper connectivity
- Enterprise LAN deployments
- Network access-layer connections
- Industrial and infrastructure Ethernet networks
- Data center copper connections
- Network expansion using existing copper cabling
- Replacement of compatible Cisco copper SFP modules
Compatibility
The Cisco GLC-TE is designed for Cisco networking platforms that specifically support the GLC-TE transceiver. Always verify the exact switch, router, or network device model and its supported SFP 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 equipment should support the corresponding 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet speeds.
Installation and Deployment
The GLC-TE can be installed directly into a compatible Cisco SFP port. Once installed, connect a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the module and configure the network interface according to the requirements of the connected Cisco platform.
