Multimode fiber (MMF) only.
When using the SFP-GE-L with 62.5-micron diameter MMF, you must install a mode-conditioning patch cord between the
SFP module and the MMF cable on both the transmit and the receive ends of the link when link distances are greater than
984 ft (300 m).
We do not recommend using the SFP-GE-L and MMF with no patch cord for very short link distance (tens of meters). The
result could be an elevated bit error rate (BER).
