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

CBO SFP-10G-RJ45-80M is an SFP+ copper transceiver module that provides 10 Gbps Ethernet connectivity over standard RJ45 copper cabling. Engineered for short-range links, the module supports transmission distances up to 80 metres when used with Cat6/Cat6a cabling and fits into any standard SFP+ port on switches, routers or network adapters. The compact hot-pluggable form factor enables quick deployment in data-centre top-of-rack switches and server uplinks without altering existing copper infrastructure.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers 10 Gbps throughput with low latency and compatibility with common SFP+ interfaces, enabling high-bandwidth copper connections without fibre conversion. Its RJ45 interface keeps installation and cabling straightforward and cost-effective for short links. The hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor allows fast replacement and upgrades, while support for Cat6/Cat6a cabling gives predictable performance for distances up to 80 metres.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10G uplinks between switches and servers
• Data-centre top-of-rack and aggregation links
• Server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections within wiring closets
• Network equipment migration where copper 10G is required without fibre

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor with RJ45 copper connector
• Data rate: 10 Gbps Ethernet
• Maximum supported link length: up to 80 metres over Cat6/Cat6a cabling
• Cabling: compatible with Category 6 and Category 6a twisted-pair copper cabling
• Hot-pluggable design for in-service replacement and installation
• Typical use: short-range copper 10G links in networking equipment

How to use

Insert the SFP+ module into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router or network adapter until it clicks into place. Connect an RJ45 terminated Cat6 or Cat6a cable between the module and the remote device, ensuring cable routing meets best practices to minimize interference. Verify link status through the host device’s management interface and confirm 10 Gbps operation. For replacement, power down the port if required by the host, press the release latch and remove the module before inserting a new unit.

Recommendations

Use high-quality Cat6 or Cat6a cabling and proper RJ45 connectors to achieve full 80 m reach. Avoid running cables near high-power electrical lines and maintain bend radii to manufacturer guidelines. Check the network equipment compatibility list and firmware status to ensure full feature support and stable 10G links.
