Transceptor SFP+ de cobre CBO SFP-10G-RJ45 — 10GBASE-T RJ45 10 Gbps

The SFP+ Copper Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-RJ45 provides 10GBASE-T connectivity over standard RJ45 copper cabling. Designed for insertion into SFP+ slots, this compact hot-pluggable module enables 10 Gbps links over Cat6, Cat6a or Cat7 cabling for short- to mid-range connections. It is intended for use with switches, servers and other network equipment that accept SFP+ form-factor transceivers and offers a straightforward way to deploy copper 10G links without changing existing copper infrastructure.

Advantages

The transceiver supports 10 Gbps throughput with backward-compatible operation on legacy copper cabling within its specified reach, allowing migration to higher speeds while reusing installed twisted-pair cables. Its SFP+ form factor provides hot-pluggable convenience and saves space in systems with SFP+ ports. Using widely available RJ45 connectors reduces the need for fiber handling and simplifies connectivity in rack and patch environments. The module is suitable for mixed deployments where both fiber and copper links are required.

Suitable for

• 10G aggregation and access links in data centers and campus networks
• Connecting servers and storage to top-of-rack or leaf switches
• Upgrading wiring closets that use Cat6/Cat6a/Cat7 copper cabling
• Mixed fiber and copper network environments requiring SFP+ portability

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor with RJ45 copper connector
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (10GBASE-T)
• Cable type: Compatible with Category 6, Category 6a and Category 7 twisted-pair cabling
• Reach: Short- to mid-range copper reach as per cabling category limits
• Hot-pluggable: Yes
• Power and thermal: Designed for operation in standard SFP+ port power envelopes (check host device limits)

How to use

Insert the SFP+ copper transceiver into an available SFP+ slot on the host switch, server or network device until it latches. Connect a standard RJ45 patch cable of the appropriate category between the module and the remote RJ45 port. Ensure both endpoints are configured for 10GBASE-T operation if manual configuration is required on the host device. Monitor link status LEDs on the host and verify network negotiation and performance using standard management tools.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbps links, use Cat6a or Cat7 cabling for runs approaching the upper reach limits and follow proper cabling practices (shielding, termination, and separation from electromagnetic interference sources). Verify that the host device supports SFP+ copper modules and confirm power/thermal allowances in dense installations. When mixing fiber and copper transceivers in a chassis, plan port density and cooling accordingly.
