SFP copper RJ45 transceiver CBO M-SFP-TX/RJ45 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet

CBO M-SFP-TX/RJ45 is an SFP copper transceiver that delivers 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet over standard twisted-pair copper cables using an RJ45 connector. Designed for use in hot-swappable SFP ports, this module enables straightforward copper uplinks and device connections without the need for fiber optics. It is compatible with common network equipment such as switches, routers and media converters and supports flexible port conversion in mixed-cable environments.

Advantages

The transceiver supports full Gigabit Ethernet performance over existing copper infrastructure and fits into standard SFP cages for hot-swap installation. It simplifies network upgrades and reduces the need to install additional fiber, offering interoperability with devices that accept SFP copper modules. The RJ45 interface provides backwards compatibility with Cat5e/Cat6 cabling and typical network patch panels, while the compact SFP form factor conserves slot space compared with larger copper modules.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP copper transceiver into a compatible SFP slot until it clicks to secure the module. Connect a suitable twisted-pair Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port and the remote device or patch panel. Ensure the network equipment recognizes the module and negotiates link speed at 1 Gbps. For safe removal, follow the host device procedure to power down or logically disable the port if required, then press the module latch and pull the transceiver out of the SFP cage.

Recommendations

Use Cat5e or Cat6 cables for reliable Gigabit performance and keep copper cable runs within standard distance limits for 1000Base-T. Verify compatibility with the host device's SFP copper module support and update device firmware if necessary to ensure stable link negotiation.
