Hello All,
I can't find support for the GLC-GE-100FX in the compatibility matrix for the WS-C2960L-24TS-LL
All the other 1 gbps SFP modules seems supported ( even the CWDM's )
Did someone tried this already in the field ?
Kind regards

Hi
your looking at the wrong guide
here you go looks to be supported

Hello Mark,
Sorry, but L-series isn't even mentioned in your URL ...
Kind regards

Hi
As its supported on all the other FE 2960s it should be supported on this too It wouldn't just not be supported on 1 2960 model especially when all the other standard L models support it , sheet may not have been updated yet , last update was January
the data sheet for that particular model points back to that sheet to check :)

For information about supported SFP/SFP+ modules, refer to the Transceiver Compatibility matrix tables at cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/modules/ps5455/products_device_support_tables_list.html |

Hello Marc.
Thanks for your add-on
I would like to see this official confirmed ( in the compatibility matrix ) or confirmed from the field ( experience), as it deal a large quantity of modules, with can't be returned if not working ...
Maybe the SFP ports on the L-series only support gigabit speeds and no 100 mbps ...

Understood , well there the official docs at the minute available for it so you may have to see if someone has field tested it or ask TAC they will definitely clarify either
Maybe the SFP ports on the L-series only support gigabit speeds and no 100 mbps ...
They definitely support 100mb its in the data sheet as below , backward compatible as all catalyst switches are usually back to 10mb if required

quote "They definitely support 100mb its in the data sheet as below , backward compatible as all catalyst switches are usually back to 10mb if required"
Also on the uplinks ?

You cant set the speed on any SFP full fibre port usually with fibre cable attached as it doesnt understand speed syntax , it would need to be changed to media rj45 with something like a GLC-T SFP for copper an then set as 10mb
If it has a fibre wire in it no you cant change it
so only if you use a copper based SFP for the uplink and then use a copper cable can you change the speed
Note Only Catalyst 2960 switches have dual-purpose uplinks ports.
Some switches support dual-purpose uplink ports. By default, the switch dynamically selects the interface type that first links up. However, you can use the media-type interface configuration command to manually select the RJ-45 connector or the SFP module connector. For more information, see the “Dual-Purpose Uplink Ports” section.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to select which dual-purpose uplink to activate so that you can set the speed and duplex. This procedure is optional.

Hi I can confirm we have plugged in both the
GLC-GE-100FX and
GLC-FE-100FX
both turn the port status to red in the GUI "err-disabled"
which I believe means incompatible.
This is definitely a newer switch and the Gigabit Transceiver Matrix is labeled "Updated" while the 100Mbit page is not labeled as such.
My guess is they haven't gotten around to programming in the support yet, seems like a simple forethought to me. There also is not any support yet for the CNA GUI, which would be great.
