Operates in full-duplex up to 100 meters of CAT-5 shielded
twisted pair (STP) cable with BER less than 10e-10.
NOTE: To comply with GR-1089 intra-building, lightning-
immunity requirements and ensure compliance with Radiated
Emissions Criteria, you must use shielded-twisted pair cable
and ensure that it is properly terminated at both ends.
Important: The SFP interface is only certified to work with SFP transceiver modules purchased from Cisco for
use with the GLC2.
Important: Class 1 Laser Compliance Notice Because of the optical SFP interface, this product has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for Class 1 laser devices for IEC825, EN60825, and 21CFR1040 specifications.
