Hello,
I am interesting is ESW-520-24-K9 switche supports GLC-LH-SM SFP ?
In official data sheet there is no information about that. Some guys out there were speaking that it is supported and I am interesting if it is true ?

I hate the idea of running 9um single mode SFP on a multimodal cable 50 or 62.5th fiber core.
I have never used it , but I would guess if you must run SM SFP over MM fiber, there may be a mode conditioning cable to allow that mating.
I have seen within Cisco the mention of using SM SFP over multimode. I am unconvinced by that application.
I personally will not validate running SM SFP over a MM cable. My colleagues may disagree.
I welcome any input to your application from other folks on the community.

Hello ngtransge,
The ESW 500 series switches do support fiber line connections using the mini-gbic transceivers. Here is a link to the supported models for use with the ESW 500 series.

What about exactly GLC-LH-SM ?

Hi Ngtransge,
It should work ok, but we have validated MGBLX1 for SM 10KM applications. See the following datasheet for validated SFP's.

Thank you for helping,
GLC-LH-SM works for both multimude and singlemode fibers. Does MGBLX1 support both modes?
