Copper SFP Transceiver BlueOptics 109565549-BO 1000 Mbit/s Silver

The BlueOptics 109565549-BO is a copper SFP transceiver designed for Gigabit Ethernet connections. With a secure RJ-45 copper interface and a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s, this compact silver SFP module provides a standard form factor for integration into switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP modules. The module is lightweight (approximately 20 g) and specified with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, intended for stable network connectivity in server rooms, wiring closets and telecommunications equipment.

Advantages

The module supports Gigabit Ethernet over copper using a single RJ-45 port, allowing direct connection to copper-based network cabling without additional media conversion. Its SFP form factor enables hot-pluggable installation in compatible SFP ports, saving rack space compared with larger fixed interfaces. The silver housing and compact dimensions contribute to simple handling and installation while the specified MTBF indicates expected long-term operational reliability.

Suitable for

• Connecting Gigabit Ethernet copper links between switches and routers
• Upgrading SFP-capable network equipment to add RJ-45 copper ports
• Short-range network links in server rooms and data closets
• Temporary or permanent replacement of faulty copper SFP modules

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Interface: Ethernet LAN (RJ-45), single port
• Form factor: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Weight: 0.02 kg (approx. 20 g)
• Product colour: Silver
• Reliability indicator: MTBF 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on the network device until it seats firmly and the retention mechanism engages. Connect a standard Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port on the transceiver and to the opposite network endpoint. Ensure connected devices are configured for Gigabit Ethernet operation and verify link status through the host device management interface. The module is hot-pluggable; power cycling is typically not required when inserting or removing the transceiver, but follow the host equipment manufacturer's instructions for best practice.

Recommendations

Use Cat5e or higher-rated copper Ethernet cable for links intended to operate at 1000 Mbit/s and keep cable runs within recommended distances for copper Gigabit Ethernet. Install the transceiver in compatible equipment and verify compatibility with the network device's supported SFP copper modules. Avoid exposing the module to moisture, extreme temperatures, or mechanical shock to maintain the specified MTBF and reliable operation.
