Intellinet 545006 Gigabit Sfp Multimode Transceiver

Product Description

The INTELLINET 545006 is a Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) fiber transceiver module designed for Gigabit Ethernet connections over multimode fiber. Also known as a mini-GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter), it is housed in a metal enclosure that reduces electromagnetic interference and adds mechanical durability. The module supports MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compliance, enabling broad interoperability across network switch brands. Network technicians and IT infrastructure professionals install this transceiver in SFP-equipped switches to add or extend fiber uplink capacity in high-density environments.

The 545006 suits installations where rack space is limited and multiple fiber connections must be supported simultaneously, such as data closets, server rooms, and structured cabling deployments. It broadcasts the vendor part number GLC-SX-MM, which enables compatibility with Cisco SFP-equipped switches. It is also compatible with any other MSA-compliant SFP-enabled switch, making it a practical choice for mixed-vendor network environments in both commercial and enterprise settings.

Key Features

• Mini-GBIC form factor supports high-density fiber installations with a compact footprint
• Metal housing reduces electromagnetic interference and improves module durability
• MSA-compliant design ensures interoperability with a wide range of SFP-equipped switches
• Broadcasts vendor part number GLC-SX-MM for Cisco switch compatibility
• Hot-pluggable — can be installed or removed without powering down the host switch

Compatibility

Compatible with any Intellinet SFP-equipped network switch and any MSA-compliant SFP-enabled switch. Broadcasts vendor part number GLC-SX-MM for compatibility with Cisco SFP-equipped devices.

Installation Notes

This module is hot-pluggable, so the host switch does not need to be powered down during installation or removal. Network technicians should handle SFP modules carefully to avoid contaminating the fiber port — always use a dust cap when the module is not connected to a fiber cable. Follow the switch manufacturer guidelines for SFP slot insertion and ensure the fiber cable connectors are clean before mating.
