C2960 and SFP Modules

We have to interconnect several c2960 (IOS 12.2(35)SE4) using sinlge mode FOC connection. The distances between the site locations are from 10km to 45km.

From another project we have GLC-FE-100ZX modules. Can we use those modules in the 2960-24TC-L? If yes which IOS should be installed?

Would be nice reading some hints or suggestions.

According from Table 3 of the below link, GLC-FE-100ZX is not a supported SFP for the 2960's.

Hi Andre,

On the 2960s, the SFP is Gig only and it is not Fast Ethernet SFP.
