SFP transceiver module BlueOptics GLC-TE-BO Copper 1000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics GLC-TE-BO Copper SFP transceiver module provides 1000 Mbit/s copper connectivity in a compact SFP form factor. Designed for insertion into compatible SFP ports, this silver-coloured module supports standard Gigabit Ethernet links over twisted-pair copper cabling. It is RoHS compliant and intended to deliver reliable physical-layer connectivity for switches, routers and network appliances that accept SFP copper modules.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP interface that preserves port density while enabling Gigabit Ethernet over copper. Its 1000 Mbit/s rated throughput supports standard network speeds and reduces the need for separate media converters. The silver housing provides a durable physical casing and the product complies with RoHS requirements for restricted substances.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics GLC-TE-BO into a compatible device SFP slot following the device manufacturer’s hot-plug procedures. Connect the copper cable to the module’s RJ-45 interface and verify link/activity LEDs on the host device. Configure network settings on connected equipment as required for your topology and enable auto-negotiation where supported to establish Gigabit Ethernet operation. Remove the module by powering down or following hot-swap instructions for the host device if required.

Recommendations

Use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cabling and maintain proper cable length limits for Gigabit Ethernet. Verify that the host device supports third-party SFP copper modules and update device firmware if necessary. Avoid excessive mechanical stress on the module and observe electrostatic discharge precautions when handling.
