3750 GLC-T SFP Auto Negotiation

[mohsinsalimvs]

hi all

I have a 3750 switch that have fiber sfps. I'm planning to buy GLC-t SFPs. I want to know that whether i will be able to connect GLC-T SFP to a normal 100BaseTx port ? Will GLC-T support autonegotiation ?

Waiting for a response

I think it is not supported. The GLC-T SFP Auto Negotiation is supported only Catalyst 4500 series switches and above. So it is better to stick to normal SFP cables when you use Catalyst 3750 switch.

thanks for the information

Is there any provision out there to do it ? like media converters or something like ?

If you use a built-in port (e.g. a 10/100 or 10/100/1000 port) then it will negotiate 100Mb.

It's just the SFPs that won't negotiate lower..
