Where to Look for Compatible Cisco 1000BASE-T SFP?

 There are all sorts of resources to find the most out of technology budget, specially when it comes to find the Cisco 1000BASE-T SFP modules either for brand new, refurbished, or lightly used. What are the best ways to find them for a much more inexpensive price?

Online Retailers

Online retailers with warehouses not only provide consumer-side purchasing with modules and networking hardware, they can also be a valuable asset to all sorts of companies looking to spend less money on apparatus. There are online retailers that give almost as high as 90% discounts and price reductions. You should be careful when it comes to specific warehouses as they might have huge savings but the parts could be used or not of the highest quality.

Certified Sellers

Certified sellers, or re-sellers, will offer completely new or refurbished modules with great prices. Besides, they have professionals who can help you with all of your technology questions and make sure that you get the best deal.

Third-Party Companies

In fact, there are several third party vendors to manufacture compatible SFP modules , such as OEMfibers.com. Many people are confused about whether I should use 3rd party SFP modules. Most "alternative party" transceivers are made and assembled in specifically the same plants assembling officially-branded transceivers. There is almost no big difference between an official Cisco transceiver and a third-party plug, aside from the branding and about two hundred to a few thousand bucks. And now, using third party SFP modules seems to a lot more popular, as many 3rd party SFP module vendors are providing high quality and reliable third party SFP modules with low prices. Besides, third-party SFPs can be as reliable as established OEM products.

Differences between cisco GLC-T and cisco GLC-TE

 Cisco GLC-T, GLC-TE and SFP-GE-T optical modules are all Gigabit port optical modules with RJ45 interface and 100m transmission distance. They are cost-saving solutions for Gigabit Ethernet connection in data center, access network and storage area network applications. Therefore, these three types of optical modules are often difficult to distinguish. In fact, the transmission effect of these three optical modules is the same, which optical module can achieve Gigabit transmission, but it is certainly noteworthy that the original Cisco GLC-T and SPF-GE-T optical modules were terminated on June 1, 2017 and replaced by GLC-TE optical module. SFP-GE-T optical module with NEBS 3 ESD function needs to be selected if it is traded directly with the telecommunications company (which requires NEBS).The price of GLC-T and GLC-TE optical modules is low, and they can also meet the needs of Gigabit Ethernet. The Cisco Gigabit optical modules provided by Easy Communications can meet a large number

Why the sfp transceiver not work

 The failure of the sfp optical module is divided into the failure of the transmitter and the failure of the receiver. Through the analysis of the main causes of the phenomenon, the most likely problems are mainly concentrated in the following aspects: The optical port of the  1000base SFP transceiver  is contaminated and damaged Because of the pollution and damage of the optical interface of the module, the loss of the optical link is increased, so that the optical fiber link is unreachable. The main reasons for this phenomenon are the following four points: 1. The optical port of the SFP optical module has been exposed to the environment for a long time, resulting in contamination and contamination of the SFP optical port; 2. The end face of the fiber jumper connected to the  Cisco SFP-10g-sr  optical module has been contaminated, and the SFP optical port provides been contaminated; 3. Improper operation of the end face of the optical connector with pigtails, scratching of the finish
