SFP-transceivermodule BlueOptics SFP-GE-T-HU-BO koper 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-GE-T-HU-BO Copper SFP transceiver module provides 1.25 Gbit/s (1250 Mbit/s) Ethernet connectivity over copper cabling in a compact SFP form factor. Finished in a steel colour and weighing approximately 20 g, this module is intended for insertion into SFP-compatible switch or router ports to enable short-range copper links. The module supports standard SFP electrical interface characteristics for use in enterprise and industrial networks where reliable gigabit-class copper links are required.

Advantages

The BlueOptics SFP-GE-T-HU-BO is compact and lightweight, enabling flexible deployment in systems with limited space. Its SFP interface simplifies hot-swap installation and replacement without powering down equipment. Designed for copper links, the transceiver eliminates the need for fiber media and associated optics for short-distance connections, reducing cabling complexity. The steel-coloured metal housing provides mechanical durability and shielding for consistent signal transfer.

Suitable for

• Short-range 1.25 Gbit/s Ethernet connections over Cat5e/Cat6 copper cabling
• Upgrading SFP ports on switches and routers to support copper links
• Data center access, server uplinks and edge switching where fiber is not required
• Industrial network devices with SFP slots requiring compact transceivers

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s (1.25 Gbit/s)
• Media type: Copper (twisted-pair Ethernet)
• Form factor: Hot-pluggable SFP module
• Housing colour: Steel
• Weight: 0.02 kg

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or media converter until it latches securely. Connect the copper Ethernet cable (Cat5e/Cat6) to the RJ-45 interface provided on the module or device port as applicable. Ensure link settings on both endpoints match (speed/duplex or auto-negotiation) and verify link LEDs or management interfaces for an active connection. For hot-swap operations, follow the host equipment manufacturer’s guidance to avoid transient link disruption.

Recommendations

Use certified copper Ethernet cables of appropriate category (Cat5e or Cat6) for reliable 1.25 Gbit/s performance. Install transceivers in environments within the temperature and humidity ranges specified by your network equipment, and avoid excessive mechanical stress on the module or cable. When replacing or installing modules, handle by the housing and avoid touching electrical contacts to reduce the risk of damage from electrostatic discharge.
