Koper-transceivermodule BlueOptics SFP-10G-RJ45-BC-BO 10000 Mbit/s RJ-45

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-RJ45-BC-BO is a copper SFP transceiver module designed for 10 Gbit/s Ethernet over twisted-pair copper cabling. Compact and enclosed in a metal housing, the module provides a standard RJ-45 connector and operates from a 3.3 V input, offering an industrially robust option for adding 10 Gigabit copper ports to compatible network switches and routers. The module's small form factor and 20 g weight make it suitable for dense rack deployments and environments where space and weight are constrained.

Advantages

This transceiver supports full 10 Gbit/s data throughput over copper cabling with a standard RJ-45 interface, enabling straightforward integration into existing cabling infrastructures. The metal housing improves mechanical durability and electromagnetic shielding. The module's compact SFP form factor allows for flexible port expansion without occupying large slot space, and the low weight simplifies handling during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Upgrading network equipment to 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper
• Connecting switches and routers in data center topologies with copper runs
• Deployments where fiber is not available or existing RJ-45 cabling is preferred
• Dense rack installations requiring small-form-factor transceivers

Key specifications

• Interface type: RJ-45 copper connector
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Operating voltage: 3.3 V input
• Housing material: metal casing for durability and shielding
• Product colour: silver
• Weight: 0.02 kg

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-10G-RJ45 module into a compatible SFP+ slot on a network switch or router, ensuring the module is oriented correctly and fully seated. Connect a CAT6a or better shielded twisted-pair cable to the RJ-45 port to achieve 10 Gbit/s links; verify cable quality and terminations for reliable performance. After insertion, confirm link status and speed via the host device's management interface and monitor for proper operation during initial traffic testing.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbit/s operation, use certified CAT6a or CAT7 cabling and keep copper runs within recommended length specifications for 10GBASE-T. Ensure the host equipment supports SFP+ copper transceivers and check firmware compatibility where applicable. Avoid exposing the module to excessive moisture or mechanical stress during handling and installation.
