Copper Transceiver CBO 10G-SFPP-TX-A-BO 10 Gbit/s RJ-45 30 m

Copper transceiver CBO 10G-SFPP-TX-A-BO delivers 10 Gbit/s data transmission over standard RJ-45 copper cabling for distances up to 30 metres. The module is intended for use in SFP+ ports to provide short-range 10 Gigabit Ethernet links between switches, servers and other network equipment. Its compact SFP+ compliant form factor allows straightforward installation and replacement in compatible network devices.

Advantages

The transceiver supports full 10 Gbit/s throughput on copper infrastructure and is backward-compatible with common twisted-pair cabling types within its distance limit. Its SFP+ form factor reduces space requirements on equipment and simplifies hot-swap replacement. The device provides a cost-effective option for short-range high-speed connections without the need for fiber optics, while maintaining industry-standard electrical interfaces for interoperability with network hardware.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 Gigabit Ethernet links between switches and aggregation devices
• Server-to-switch uplinks in data center racks with copper cabling
• High-speed connections in wiring closets and campus wiring within 30 m
• Temporary or test connections where optical transceivers are not required

Key specifications

• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Interface: RJ-45 over copper
• Form factor: SFP+ compatible module
• Maximum cable distance: up to 30 metres (category and installation dependent)
• Supported medium: twisted-pair copper cabling

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on the network device until it latches. Connect a properly rated RJ-45 copper cable between the transceiver and the remote device. Ensure both ends support 10 Gbit/s operation and verify link status in the device management interface. If required, configure speed and duplex settings or allow auto-negotiation according to the network design. For safe hot-swap, follow the host device manufacturer's guidance when removing or installing modules.

Recommendations

Use high-quality category-rated twisted-pair cable and controlled installation practices to achieve reliable 10 Gbit/s links up to 30 metres. Confirm compatibility with the host equipment vendor's transceiver support list and monitor link indicators after installation. Avoid exceeding the specified distance and protect connectors from contaminants or mechanical stress to maintain signal integrity.
