CBO Transceiver SFP-10G-RJ45-80M 10 Gbps SFP+ copper RJ45 80 m

The CBO Transceiver SFP-10G-RJ45-80M 10 Gbps SFP+ copper RJ45 80 m is a compact SFP+ module that provides 10 Gbps Ethernet connectivity over standard copper twisted-pair cabling. Designed for insertion into SFP+ ports of switches, routers and servers, this transceiver supports short-range 10G links up to 80 meters using Cat6/Cat6a class cabling and an RJ45 connector. The module is suitable for environments where fiber is not required or where copper links provide cost-effective, low-latency connections inside racks, server rooms and wiring closets.

Advantages

This SFP+ copper transceiver delivers 10 Gbps performance in a hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor, enabling easy upgrades of existing SFP+ ports without changing switch hardware. The RJ45 interface allows use with common twisted-pair cables and simplifies cabling management. Its short-reach capability up to 80 meters makes it practical for intra-rack and adjacent-rack connections, reducing the need for fiber patching and media conversion. The module is built to industry-typical electrical and mechanical specifications for straightforward compatibility with network equipment that accepts SFP+ copper modules.

Suitable for

• 10G short-reach connections between switches in the same rack or adjacent racks
• Direct server-to-switch 10G links using twisted-pair cabling
• Temporary or test lab setups where fiber is not available
• Network equipment upgrades that require copper SFP+ ports

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor with RJ45 connector
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (full duplex)
• Maximum reach: up to 80 meters over appropriate twisted-pair cabling
• Cable type: compatible with Cat6/Cat6a (and equivalent) twisted-pair cabling
• Transmission medium: 10GBASE-T over copper
• Hot-pluggable: supports insertion and removal without powering down host device

How to use

Insert the SFP-10G-RJ45-80M module into an available SFP+ port on the switch, router or server following the host device procedure for SFP+ modules. Connect an appropriate RJ45-terminated Cat6 or Cat6a cable between the transceiver and the remote RJ45 port. Verify link negotiation and speed on both ends; ensure that the connected devices support 10GBASE-T or 10G SFP+ copper modules. If necessary, consult the equipment vendor documentation for any required configuration or compatibility settings.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbps performance up to 80 meters, use high-quality Cat6a cabling and maintain proper cable routing and separation from electromagnetic interference sources. Check host device compatibility with copper SFP+ modules and confirm that firmware or software settings permit use of third-party transceivers when applicable.
