IBM 00AY240 - kompatibles 1000BASE-T SFP Kupfer RJ-45 100m SFP Transceiver Modul

In a busy enterprise data centre, network administrators often need to connect switches and servers over short distances using existing copper cabling. The FS.COM 00AY240-C compatible 1000BASE-T SFP transceiver module plugs into a standard SFP port and provides a Gigabit Ethernet link over Cat5e or better twisted-pair cable, reaching up to 100 metres. It is fully compatible with IBM 00AY240 and any MSA-compliant SFP slot, making it a straightforward upgrade or replacement for legacy fibre links.

Key specifications

Why choose it

This transceiver eliminates the need for fibre cabling in short-reach applications, leveraging your existing copper infrastructure to save cost and simplify deployment. Its hot-swappable design allows for quick installation without network downtime, and DDM support provides real-time monitoring of temperature, voltage, and optical power (where applicable). With low power consumption and a wide operating temperature range, it is built for reliable 24/7 operation in enterprise environments.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting switches, routers, and servers in data centres and wiring closets
• Upgrading legacy 100Mbps copper links to Gigabit Ethernet without replacing cabling
• Extending network reach up to 100 metres over copper in office or industrial settings
• Replacing failed or incompatible SFP modules in IBM and other MSA-compliant equipment

Good to know

The FS.COM 00AY240-C is a cost-effective alternative to original IBM transceivers, offering identical functionality and full compliance with MSA standards. It works seamlessly with any switch or router that accepts standard SFP modules, not just IBM hardware. For best performance, use Cat5e or higher cabling and ensure proper grounding. The module is backed by FS.COM's compatibility guarantee and technical support.
