About the Cisco GLC-BX-D Cisco SFP/SFP+/QSFP/XFP transceiver
The Cisco GLC-BX-D is a single-strand, single-mode fiber SFP transceiver delivering 1.25 Gbps throughput over distances up to 10 km, engineered for cost-effective long-reach Ethernet deployments in enterprise and service provider networks.
This form-factor module operates as a 1000BASE-BX10-D transceiver, transmitting at 1490 nm and receiving at 1310 nm in full-duplex mode across a single LC-connector fiber strand. Built for network engineers and IT procurement teams seeking reliable, standards-compliant optical interconnect solutions, the GLC-BX-D integrates Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) for real-time link diagnostics and supports hot-swappable operation for seamless field deployment. The module is fully compatible with the Cisco GLC-BX-U far-end transceiver and meets IEEE 802.3ah 1000BASE-BX10 specifications. Genuine Cisco firmware authentication via IOS Integrity Check ensures network integrity and long-term hardware assurance. Operating across a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C, this transceiver delivers dependable performance in standard data center and campus environments. Its single-fiber BiDi (bidirectional) architecture minimizes cabling complexity while maintaining full-duplex communication, making it ideal for point-to-point backbone links and remote site connectivity. For procurement teams evaluating optical transceiver solutions, the Cisco GLC-BX-D (part number GLC-BX-D) combines proven Cisco reliability with cost-effective single-fiber economics.
