BlueOptics S+RJ01 compatible BlueOptics SFP BO08C38S1

For network engineers who need 10 Gigabit Ethernet over existing copper cabling without replacing switches or pulling fibre, the BlueOptics S+RJ01-BO delivers a drop-in SFP+ module with an RJ45 port. It bridges the gap between legacy Cat6a/7 infrastructure and high-speed uplinks, offering a cost-effective path to 10G where fibre is impractical. Unlike fibre SFP+ modules that require optical cabling, this transceiver uses standard twisted-pair copper, making it ideal for short-reach connections in data centres, server rooms, and enterprise wiring closets.

Highlights

• 10GBASE-T SFP+ transceiver with RJ45 connector for copper networks
• Supports distances up to 30 metres over Cat6a/Cat7 cable
• Fully MSA compliant and compatible with Cisco S+RJ01 and other MSA-based switches
• Hot-swappable, low power consumption under 2.5 W
• Digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time status
• Ultra-low latency of less than 2.6 microseconds

In daily use

Installing the S+RJ01-BO is as simple as inserting it into any SFP+ cage and connecting a standard Ethernet cable. It auto-negotiates speeds from 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps, ensuring compatibility with existing devices. The module operates in commercial temperature ranges (0–70 °C), making it suitable for most indoor environments. Its metal housing provides durability and effective heat dissipation, while the low power draw helps maintain overall system efficiency. Network administrators can monitor link status, temperature, and voltage via DDM, simplifying troubleshooting and maintenance.
