Módulo transceptor SFP BlueOptics 3HE12115AB-BO cobre 1000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 3HE12115AB-BO Copper SFP transceiver module provides a compact interface for integrating Gigabit Ethernet over copper into switches, media converters and routers. Designed for a single Ethernet LAN (RJ‑45) port, this silver-coloured SFP supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s and typical copper cable distances up to 100 m. With a lightweight 20 g housing and a high mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, the module is intended to deliver reliable connectivity in standard network installations where a hot‑swappable SFP form factor is required.

Advantages

The module combines the compact SFP form factor with a common RJ‑45 copper interface to simplify upgrades and reduce the number of fixed ports required. Its Gigabit Ethernet support ensures full 1000 Mbit/s throughput for demanding LAN traffic, while the 100 m range covers typical copper cabling within racks, between adjacent rooms and for short links in wiring closets. The silver metal housing and low weight improve compatibility with tight port densities and minimise mechanical stress on cages or cages with limited space.

Suitable for

• Adding a Gigabit RJ‑45 copper port to SFP-compatible switches and media converters
• Short-range copper links within server rooms and office networks (up to 100 m)
• Temporary or replacement port needs where hot-swappable SFP modules are preferred
• Environments requiring a standard Gigabit Ethernet interface in modular network equipment

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Interface: 1 x Ethernet LAN (RJ-45)
• Maximum copper transfer distance: 100 m (over Cat5e/Cat6 cable)
• Form factor: SFP (hot‑swappable)
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Colour: Silver
• Reliability: MTBF approximately 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP copper transceiver into an empty SFP port on a compatible switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place. Connect an appropriate Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable to the RJ‑45 jack on the module and to the remote device. The module is hot‑swappable; remove it by depressing the latch and pulling it straight out when replacement or maintenance is required. Ensure the host device supports copper SFP modules and that link speed and duplex settings are configured according to network requirements.

Recommendations

For reliable Gigabit performance, use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cables and maintain cable runs within the specified 100 m limit. Verify compatibility with the host device's SFP cage and firmware, and avoid excessive mechanical strain on the module and connected cabling to preserve MTBF expectations.
