Symbol-pair codes are proposed to protect against pair errors in symbol-pair read channel. One main task in symbol-pair coding theory is to determine the minimum pair-distance of symbol-pair codes. In this paper, we investigate the symbol-pair distance of cyclic codes of length pe over Fpm$\phantom {\dot {i}\!}\mathbb {F}_{p^{m}}$. The exact symbol-pair distance of all cyclic codes of such length is determined.
