SFP Copper Transceiver CBO ITFZTCHTC-BO 1250 Mbit/s, 100 m

CBO ITFZTCHTC-BO is an SFP copper transceiver that supports a 1250 Mbit/s data rate and a cable reach of up to 100 m. Designed for installation in SFP ports of compact switches and routers, the module provides a simple electrical interface for twisted-pair copper cabling and enables Gigabit-class connectivity where fibre is not required. The transceiver is suitable for replacing or adding copper uplinks to restore or extend wired network links in data closets, access layer switches, and small server racks.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP form factor that fits into standard SFP ports and preserves port density on switches and routers. With support for 1250 Mbit/s and a 100 m reach over copper cabling, it enables short-distance connections without the cost or complexity of optical fibre. The device is compatible with common Ethernet cabling infrastructure, simplifies upgrades or repairs of copper-based links, and requires no additional media converters.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP copper transceiver into a compatible SFP port on the switch or router until it clicks into place. Connect the copper twisted-pair cable from the transceiver to the corresponding port of the remote device and ensure the cable is properly terminated and within the 100 m reach. Verify link lights and device logs to confirm the transceiver has established the expected 1250 Mbit/s connection. When removing the module, use the device's release mechanism and pull the transceiver straight out to avoid damaging the SFP slot.

Recommendations

Use quality Cat5e or better cabling and maintain a maximum link length of 100 m to ensure reliable operation at the supported data rate. Verify compatibility with your switch or router vendor and firmware, check port settings for auto-negotiation if applicable, and monitor link status after installation.
