Copper Transceiver Module BlueOptics SFP-GE-T-D-BO 1250 Mbit/s RJ-45

The BlueOptics SFP-GE-T-D-BO is a copper SFP transceiver module for 1000BASE-T networks, supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s over twisted-pair copper cabling via an RJ-45 interface. Housed in a durable silver metal case and weighing only 3 g, the module operates from a 3.3 V supply and is designed for installation in SFP-compliant ports on switches, routers and other networking equipment. It supports link lengths up to 100 m on standard Cat5e/Cat6 cabling and follows common MSA mechanical and electrical dimensions for hot-pluggable use.

Advantages

The module offers a compact, hot-pluggable copper transceiver option that enables 1 Gbit/s-class connectivity where fiber is not required, with low weight and a metal housing for mechanical robustness and electromagnetic shielding. Operating at a 3.3 V input and designed for direct RJ-45 connection, it simplifies migration and port upgrades on systems that accept SFP copper modules. Compliance with widely used SFP mechanical standards ensures straightforward interoperability with equipment that supports compatible 1000BASE-T SFP modules.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP-GE-T-D-BO module into an empty SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or other SFP-capable device while the device is powered according to the vendor's hot-plug guidelines. Connect a standard Cat5e/Cat6 copper cable to the RJ-45 jack on the module and to the remote device. The link should negotiate standard Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbit/s; verify link status and speed via the host device management interface. Ensure the host device supports copper SFP modules and, if applicable, that any required firmware or compatibility settings are enabled.

Recommendations

Use shielded or unshielded Cat5e/Cat6 cables suitable for your environment, keep cable lengths under 100 m for optimal performance, and verify compatibility with the target device. For network monitoring and troubleshooting, use the host equipment management tools to check link status and diagnostic information where supported.
