Copper SFP+ Transceiver BlueOptics 508179-BO 10000 Mbit/s Silver

The BlueOptics 508179-BO is a copper SFP+ transceiver designed for 10 Gbit/s network links. The module uses an SFP+ form factor and interface to provide a compact, hot-pluggable solution for direct-attach copper connections. Finished in silver, this transceiver supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and is built to deliver long operational life with a stated MTBF of 1,000,000 hours. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS standards ensures the module meets common regulatory and environmental requirements for networking equipment.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver offers a small form factor and easy hot-plug installation for upgrades or replacements without powering down equipment. Its copper direct-attach design provides low-latency connectivity and cost-effective cabling for short-reach 10 Gbit/s links. The 1,000,000-hour MTBF and regulatory certifications contribute to predictable performance and compatibility with compliant network hardware.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s short-reach connections between switches, servers and network appliances
• Data center top-of-rack and aggregation links using copper direct-attach cabling
• Upgrading server or switch ports to SFP+ copper connectivity
• Test environments and lab setups requiring hot-pluggable transceivers

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 508179-BO by inserting the SFP+ module into a compatible SFP+ slot on your switch, server or network appliance until it firmly seats and the retention latch engages. Connect the appropriate copper direct-attach cable to the transceiver and verify link status through the host device's management interface. The module is hot-pluggable, so it can be installed or removed while the host is powered on following standard electrostatic discharge precautions.

Recommendations

Use this SFP+ copper transceiver for short-distance 10 Gbit/s links where copper direct-attach cabling is suitable. Verify compatibility with your network equipment vendor's supported transceiver list and follow recommended cable length limits for direct-attach copper assemblies. Handle the module by its housing, avoid touching electrical contacts, and store unused modules in anti-static packaging.
