Copper transceiver module BlueOptics SU56AG-BO 1250 Mbit/s SFP

The BlueOptics SU56AG-BO is a copper SFP transceiver module designed for 1000BASE-T Ethernet links with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Housed in a silver casing and weighing approximately 20 g, this SFP module uses an RJ45 copper interface and is compliant with FCC and RoHS standards. It follows MSA-compatible form factor and electrical specifications for use in compatible network switches, routers and other equipment that accept SFP copper modules.

Advantages

The module provides a compact, hot-pluggable SFP solution for Gigabit copper connectivity, enabling straightforward integration into devices with SFP ports. Compliance with common regulatory standards ensures suitability for a wide range of installations. The small form factor and standard RJ45 interface simplify replacement or upgrade of network ports without requiring major hardware changes.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SU56AG-BO by inserting the SFP module into a compatible SFP port until it latches. Connect a suitable Category cable (Cat5e or Cat6 recommended) to the module's RJ45 connector and to the remote device. Ensure the host equipment supports 1000BASE-T over SFP copper modules and, if necessary, verify link speed and duplex settings in the device management interface. The module is hot-pluggable, but follow your equipment vendor's guidance when inserting or removing transceivers to avoid port or module issues.

Recommendations

Use shielded or unshielded stable copper cabling rated for Gigabit Ethernet, maintain proper cable routing to minimise electromagnetic interference, and verify hardware compatibility with the host device. For reliable operation, confirm firmware or driver support for third-party SFP modules where applicable and follow standard ESD precautions when handling the transceiver.
