Transceptor de cobre SFP+ 10Gbps RJ45 CBO SFP-10G-RJ45-80M 80m

The BlueOptics SFP+ 10Gbps RJ45 Copper Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-RJ45-80M 80m is a hot-pluggable module that provides 10 Gbps Ethernet over standard RJ45 copper interfaces for short-range connections up to 80 meters using Cat6/Cat6a cabling. Intended for use in compatible SFP+ ports, this transceiver enables cost-effective 10G links for uplinks between switches, servers and network appliances without requiring fiber optics. The module supports data center interconnects, server room cabling and network upgrades where copper cabling is available and low-latency, high-throughput connections are required.

Advantages

This SFP+ copper transceiver offers a compact, hot-swappable form factor that simplifies installation and maintenance. By using existing Cat6/Cat6a copper cabling, it reduces deployment costs compared with fiber solutions for short distances while delivering full 10 Gbps throughput and low latency. The module is designed to match the electrical characteristics of standard SFP+ ports and provides a reliable copper option for high-speed uplinks and aggregation links within racks and across adjacent rooms.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbps uplinks between network switches in data centers and wiring closets
• Connections from servers or storage appliances to top-of-rack switches
• Short-range aggregation links where fiber is impractical or cost-prohibitive
• Network upgrades that reuse existing Cat6/Cat6a copper infrastructure

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor with RJ45 copper connector
• Data rate: 10 Gbps Ethernet
• Maximum reach: up to 80 meters over Cat6/Cat6a cable
• Cabling: supports Cat6 and Cat6a twisted-pair copper cabling
• Latency: low-latency operation suitable for server and switch uplinks
• Power consumption: typical for SFP+ copper transceivers (device-specific values depend on host port)

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on a switch, server NIC or network appliance until it seats securely; then connect a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable to the module and to the corresponding network device. Ensure the host port is configured for 10 Gbps operation and verify link status using the host device management interface. For optimal performance, use certified Cat6 or Cat6a cabling and maintain recommended cable lengths and termination standards.

Recommendations

Install the module in powered-off or hot-pluggable ports following the host vendor’s compatibility list. Keep cable runs within the specified 80 m maximum for reliable 10 Gbps throughput. Monitor port temperature and link status during initial deployment and after any cabling changes. If interoperability issues occur, check firmware and driver compatibility on both ends and test with known-good cabling and ports.
