Description
What Is Cisco Compatible GLC-EZX-SM-120 Optical Transceiver?
SFP Transceiver | Cisco Compatible 1000BASE-EZX  Optical Transceiver Module(SMF, 1550nm, 120km, LC, DOM) | HYTOPTODEVICE
 The GLC-EZX-SM-120 is a high-performance, Cisco-compatible ultra long-haul  sfp optical transceiver. Featuring a hot-pluggable SFP form factor, it operates at a fixed 1Gbps line rate over a 1550nm wavelength to transmit data, transmission up to 120km over single-mode fiber (SMF) vias Duplex LC connector. With high-density networking and low power consumption, this optical module delivers highly stable, long-reach Gigabit Ethernet connectivity across campus backbones, aggregation tiers, and corporate routing topologies. Compliant with both the SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and IEEE 802.3ah-2004. DOM supported.

Main Application Scenarios of Fiber Connection Module

  • Extreme Long-Haul Infrastructure: Directly linking deep rural, regional, or cross-border facilities up to 120km apart without investing in expensive inline optical repeaters or regenerators.

  • Utility & Pipeline Telemetry: Bridging communication gaps across remote critical infrastructure networks, such as oil and gas pipelines, railway signaling systems, and electrical power grids.

  • Regional Service Provider Transport: Connecting centralized core telecom facilities to deep edge nodes, rural broadband cabinets, or remote aggregation points.

  • Geographically Isolated Data Centers: Constructing low-latency 1G backup and data replication paths between highly separated primary data hubs and disaster recovery (DR) sites.

FAQ for Transceiver Module

  • Q1: What is the maximum distance supported by the Cisco GLC-EZX-SM-120 compatible SFP? A1: It is designed to cover extreme, ultra-long-haul distances of up to 120 kilometers (approx. 74.5 miles) over high-quality single-mode fiber (SMF).

  • Q2: Do I absolutely need an optical attenuator when deploying this 120km module?
    A2: Yes. Because the transmitter generates strong optical signals and the APD receiver is highly sensitive, connecting this module over short fiber runs (typically under 60km) without a 15dB to 20dB inline optical attenuator will permanently damage the receiver.

  • Q3: What is the receiver overload threshold for the GLC-EZX-SM-120?
    A3: The receiver overload is usually around -10 dBm. Any incoming light signal stronger than this threshold risks saturating or burning out the receiver optic.

  • Q4: What is the center operating wavelength of this module?
    A4: It operates strictly at 1550nm, leveraging the lowest attenuation window of single-mode optical fiber.

  • Q5: Can I use this 120km module with multi-mode fiber patch cables?
    A4: No. It is strictly compatible with 9/125µm Single-Mode Fiber (SMF). Multi-mode fiber will cause severe signal loss and the link will not establish.
