SFP-transceiver BlueOptics BO08C28S1 1000BASE-T tot 100 m, koper RJ45

The BlueOptics BO08C28S1 SFP transceiver provides 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over standard copper cabling using an RJ45 interface. This compact, hot-pluggable module is designed for insertion into SFP slots on switches, routers and media converters to add or upgrade copper uplink ports without replacing chassis hardware. It supports copper connections up to 100 meters and follows the small form-factor pluggable (SFP) footprint for straightforward installation and interoperability with compatible network equipment.

Advantages

The module offers a compact and hot-swappable design that enables quick port upgrades and reduces maintenance downtime. By using copper RJ45 connectivity it provides flexible, cost-effective links for existing Cat5e/Cat6 cabling infrastructure. Standard single-port operation and compatibility with common SFP slot implementations make integration into network systems simple and predictable.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place, then connect a standard RJ45 patch cable to the module and to the remote device. The link will negotiate using standard Ethernet autonegotiation; verify link status via the host device indicators or management interface. For removal, power down or disable the port according to the equipment manual if recommended, then press the transceiver release mechanism and extract the module carefully.

Recommendations

Use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cabling for reliable Gigabit performance and keep runs within the 100 m limit. Ensure the host device supports third-party SFP modules or verify compatibility lists when precise vendor interoperability is required. Avoid excessive bending or pulling of the patch cable near the RJ45 connector and follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the transceiver.
