Best Practice

How It Maximizes Network Speed

Use High-Quality Cat5 Cables

Ensure that you’re using high-quality Cat5 cables that meet network performance standards, which reduces signal degradation and ensures high speed.

Test and Monitor Network Performance

Regularly test the network and monitor performance to detect any issues such as bottlenecks that might affect the speed of Cisco GLC-TE.

Configure Speed and Duplex Mode

Set the speed and duplex mode of the switches to match the Cisco GLC-TE transceiver’s 1 Gbps speed to avoid configuration mismatches.

Ensure Proper Ventilation

Ensure that the Cisco GLC-TE is installed in a well-ventilated environment to prevent overheating, which can cause performance degradation.

Enable QoS for Prioritized Traffic

Use Quality of Service (QoS) features to prioritize business-critical applications, ensuring that they get the necessary bandwidth and don’t slow down during peak usage.

Regularly Update Firmware

Keep the firmware of the Cisco GLC-TE up to date to ensure compatibility with the latest network technologies and improve security and performance.
