Product description
The Cisco MGBSX1 module is an SFP transceiver for Gigabit Ethernet network connections over multimode fiber (MMF) at a wavelength of 850 nm, supporting a maximum distance of 500 meters on 50/125µm OM2 fiber. Designed for easy installation with a spring-loaded latch mechanism for quick removal, and supports hot-swapping to maintain network continuity. Compatible with Cisco switches from the 100, 200, 300, and 500 Series, including Catalyst models such as 3750, 3550, and 2970 that support SFP ports directly. Ideal for expanding networks within buildings or in small-scale environments such as offices or branch data centers.
More features
- Connects via standard LC duplex port
- Compatible with multiple Cisco switch models such as Catalyst 3750, 2970
- Engineered for high performance and stability in real-world network environments

13 questions
Frequently asked questions about this product
Compiled from manufacturer information
Can the MGBSX1 module be used with the Cisco 2960G-24TC switch?
The MGBSX1 module may not be directly supported by the Cisco 2960G-24TC switch due to compatibility limitations specified in Cisco documentation, particularly in models branded under Linksys. However, it may be tested for functionality if the device supports SFP and allows non-standard configuration commands. Contact sales team to confirm compatibility before purchase.
How far can MGBSX1 connect two switches?
The MGBSX1 module supports a maximum connection distance of 500 meters, especially when used with 50/125µm OM2 multimode fiber, making it suitable for inter-floor connections within buildings or between equipment rooms in small-scale environments, but not for longer distances.
What type of fiber optic cable does MGBSX1 use?
The MGBSX1 module uses multimode fiber (Multimode Fiber), specifically 50/125µm OM2 fiber, a standard commonly used in short-range indoor networks or branch data centers.
Can the module be replaced while the network is running?
Yes, the MGBSX1 module is hot-swappable, meaning it can be removed or installed without powering down the switch or interrupting network operations, enabling continuous maintenance or system expansion.
How much power does this module consume?
The MGBSX1 module consumes up to 1 watt of power, which is very low compared to typical network devices and does not significantly impact the overall power consumption of the switch.
Which Cisco switch models are compatible with this module?
The MGBSX1 module supports use with Cisco switch models 100, 200, 300, and 500 Series, particularly Catalyst models 3750, 3550, and 2970 with available SFP ports. Verify compatibility with specific models through official Cisco documentation.
Are there temperature limitations for operation?
The MGBSX1 module supports an operating temperature range of 0ºC to 70ºC (32ºF to 158ºF) and can be stored at -40ºC to 85ºC, making it suitable for use in server rooms or temperature-controlled environments, but not recommended for extreme heat or cold beyond these limits.
Do I need additional software to install?
No additional software is required. The MGBSX1 module is plug-and-play and automatically functions upon installation in an SFP-compatible switch. However, if connectivity issues arise, configuration checks or specific CLI commands may be needed.
