Cisco MGBT1 Network Transceivers & SFP Modules

The Cisco MGBT1 is a Gigabit Ethernet 1000BASE-T mini-GBIC SFP transceiver designed for distances up to 100 meters over UTP Category 5 cabling. This makes it ideal for standard office and warehouse network deployments where copper cabling is already in place. We offer the MGBT1 as part of our comprehensive Cisco networking solutions available from Barcodes Inc.

Yes, the MGBT1 mini-GBIC SFP transceiver is compatible with Cisco 100 Series Unmanaged Switches and other Cisco networking equipment that supports SFP transceiver modules. The transceiver provides 1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet connectivity and integrates seamlessly into business-class Cisco networking infrastructure. Contact us today to verify compatibility with your specific switch model.

The MGBT1 transceiver operates over UTP Category 5 Ethernet cabling, making it compatible with standard copper network infrastructure already deployed in most warehouses and facilities. Unlike fiber-based alternatives such as the MGBLH1 or MGBLX1, the MGBT1 eliminates the need for specialized fiber optic cabling while delivering full Gigabit Ethernet performance.

The MGBT1 is optimized for shorter distances (100m) using standard copper cabling, while alternatives like the MGBLH1 support up to 40km over single-mode fiber and the MGBSX1 reaches 550m over multimode fiber. The MGBT1 is the most cost-effective choice for standard office and warehouse networks with existing Cat5e infrastructure. We offer all these transceiver variants to match your specific distance and cabling requirements.

The MGBT1 operates reliably in environments with temperatures ranging from 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F) and humidity levels from 10% to 90% relative, noncondensing. These specifications ensure stable performance in typical warehouse and data center environments. Our team can help you select the right transceiver for your facility's environmental conditions—contact us today for guidance.

Yes, the MGBT1 can operate alongside other Cisco SFP transceivers like the MGBLH1, MGBLX1, and MGBSX1 within the same Cisco switch infrastructure, allowing you to create hybrid networks that combine copper and fiber connectivity. This flexibility enables you to extend network reach where needed while maintaining cost-effective copper connections for shorter distances.
