Two cisco switches 3560 connection

[Ahmed Yassin]

Hi all,

I want to connect a far cisco switch 3560 to main switch 3560, distance bettween them is about 3 km and they are connected by a fiber link.

My question is: if the required GBIC/SFP Modules is GLC-SX-MM or GLC-LH-SM from the both ends.

You will need GLC-LH-SM=, and make sure the home run and patch cords are a single mode fibers. Multimode fiber cannot handle 3KM.
