Copper SFP+ Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-RJ45-VA-BO 10 Gbps RJ45 10000 Mbit/s

The Copper SFP+ Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-RJ45-VA-BO provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over standard RJ45 copper cabling, delivering data rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s. Designed for installation in SFP+ ports, this compact hot-swappable module enables direct copper links between switches, servers and routers without requiring fiber optics. It is suitable for short- to medium-range connections using CAT6 or CAT6A cabling in data centers and enterprise networks that require reliable, high-speed copper interconnects.

Advantages

The module supports full 10 Gbps throughput with low latency and is compatible with SFP+ form-factor ports, allowing flexible deployment in existing network equipment. Hot-swappable design permits on-the-fly replacement or upgrades without powering down devices. By using RJ45 copper cabling, the transceiver reduces the need for fiber infrastructure for short runs and leverages widely available Ethernet cabling for cost-effective connectivity.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit links between switches in racks or data center top-of-rack setups
• Server uplinks and aggregation ports requiring SFP+ copper modules
• Router and firewall interfaces with SFP+ RJ45 support
• Short- to medium-distance connections over CAT6/CAT6A cabling

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor with RJ45 copper port
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s (10,000 Mbit/s)
• Medium: 1000Base-T/10G over twisted-pair copper (CAT6/CAT6A)
• Connector type: 8P8C (RJ45)
• Hot-swappable: yes
• Typical reach: short to medium range over copper cabling (depends on cable category and environment)

How to use

Insert the transceiver into an available SFP+ slot on a compatible switch, router or server until it clicks into place, then connect the RJ45 cable to the module. Ensure the attached copper cabling meets the required category (CAT6 or CAT6A) for 10 Gbps operation and that both ends are properly terminated. After insertion the host device should recognize the module and negotiate link speed and duplex automatically. For removal, power down data transmission on the interface if necessary, depress the module latch and pull the transceiver straight out.

Recommendations

Use high-quality CAT6A cabling for reliable 10 Gbps performance at longer short-to-medium distances, and verify compatibility with the host device's SFP+ port. Keep connectors clean and avoid excessive cable bending to maintain signal integrity.
