Copper Transceiver Module BlueOptics 407-BCVC-BO 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics 407-BCVC-BO is a copper SFP+ transceiver module that supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections with a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s. Designed for short-distance copper links, this compact module provides a single RJ-45 Ethernet port and a maximum copper link distance of up to 30 m. The module is lightweight (approximately 20 g) and finished in silver, offering straightforward installation in compatible SFP+ slots and compatibility with Dell network equipment.

Advantages

This copper transceiver delivers reliable 10 Gigabit performance for short-reach connections while maintaining low weight and compact dimensions for easy handling and deployment. Its single RJ-45 port simplifies cabling with standard Ethernet copper cables, and the module’s design supports direct insertion into SFP+ slots without requiring additional adapters. Compatibility with common server and switch platforms enables straightforward upgrades of existing network hardware.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 10 Gigabit uplinks between switches and servers
• Data center access links and top-of-rack connections
• High-bandwidth connections in enterprise LAN environments
• Equipment upgrades where copper cabling is preferred over fiber

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s
• Ethernet interface: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (SFP+ copper)
• Ports: 1 x RJ-45 Ethernet
• Maximum transfer distance over copper: up to 30 m
• Product color: Silver
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics 407-BCVC-BO into an open SFP+ slot on a compatible switch, server or network device, ensuring the module is firmly seated. Connect a compatible Cat6a/Cat7 copper Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port to establish a 10 Gigabit link. Verify link status and negotiated speed in the device’s management interface and ensure that the connected equipment supports SFP+ copper transceivers. Power down is typically not required for hot-pluggable SFP+ modules, but follow the host device manufacturer’s installation guidelines.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gigabit performance, use high-quality shielded copper cables rated for 10G (Cat6a or better) and keep copper link lengths within the specified 30 m maximum. Check firmware and compatibility lists for your switch or server to confirm support for the transceiver model before deployment.
