Grafenthal Transceiver 1G SFP RJ45 100m Cat5e

The Grafenthal Transceiver 1G SFP RJ45 is a high-performance, cost-effective Gigabit Ethernet copper SFP module. Designed as a direct replacement for the HP J8177D, this transceiver delivers reliable 1000BASE-T connectivity over Cat5e or better twisted-pair cabling, supporting distances up to 100 meters. It is hot-swappable, features Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM), and is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3ab standards. Ideal for enterprise networks, data centers, and telecom applications, this module ensures seamless integration with multi-vendor equipment.

Advantages

This transceiver offers exceptional value with full compatibility and performance. Key benefits include low power consumption (<1.2W), auto-negotiation for easy setup, and full-duplex operation for maximum throughput. The rugged design supports operating temperatures from 0°C to 70°C, making it suitable for various environments. DDM allows real-time monitoring of parameters like temperature, voltage, and optical power, aiding in proactive network management.
