Cisco compatible MA-SFP-1GB-SX Description

EdgeOptic's MA-SFP-1GB-SX compatible is a Cisco Meraki-coded version of the EdgeOptic 1.25G-SFP-550D multi-vendor 1000BASE-SX transceiver. It runs Gigabit Ethernet at 1.25 Gbps (IEEE 802.3z) and 1G Fibre Channel SW at 1.0625 Gbps over duplex multimode fiber, with an 850nm VCSEL transmitter and a PIN photodiode receiver.

With a 7.5 dB optical budget, the module reaches 550m over OM2 multimode fiber (50/125, 500 MHz·km) and 275m over OM1 (62.5/125). It uses a duplex LC/UPC interface and supports DDM/DOM diagnostics for live monitoring of optical power, bias current, and temperature. The module operates over the commercial 0 to 70°C range, built to the INF-8074i SFP MSA, +3.3V supply, CE/RoHS, Class 1 laser safety.

MA-SFP-1GB-SX is the Cisco Meraki ordering code for this 1G SX SFP, used on Meraki MS series switches and MX security appliances with SFP ports. EdgeOptic codes the EEPROM with Meraki-recognized data so the module identifies correctly in the Meraki Dashboard. It is the Meraki-line module, distinct from the Catalyst GLC-SX-MM and GLC-SX-MMD; verify your specific model in Cisco Meraki's SFP and Stacking Accessories documentation before ordering.

Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty. For ordering-code confirmation or platform questions, contact our sales team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Cisco Meraki MS switches need special configuration to use a compatible MA-SFP-1GB-SX?

No CLI command is needed. Meraki MS switches and MX appliances are managed through the Meraki Dashboard and have no device command line, so there is no 'service unsupported-transceiver' step as on IOS-based Catalyst switches. EdgeOptic codes the EEPROM with Meraki-recognized data, so the module identifies correctly in the Dashboard. Check Cisco Meraki's transceiver documentation for your platform's current optics policy.

Is the MA-SFP-1GB-SX the same as GLC-SX-MM or GLC-SX-MMD used in Catalyst switches?

Both are 1000BASE-SX multimode SFPs, but they carry different vendor coding and serve different product lines. MA-SFP-1GB-SX is the Cisco Meraki-coded module for MS switches and MX appliances; GLC-SX-MM and GLC-SX-MMD are the Catalyst-coded equivalents for IOS-based switches. Use the Meraki SKU for Meraki platforms. If you are migrating from Catalyst to Meraki and need to confirm the right part, contact our sales team.
