SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-10G-COPPER-BO 10000 Mbit/s RJ-45

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-COPPER-BO is a copper SFP+ transceiver module providing 10 Gbit/s Ethernet connectivity over standard RJ-45 ports. Housed in a compact SFP+ form factor and weighing approximately 20 g, this module supports 10GBASE-T transmission up to 30 m and is intended for installation in switches, routers and other networking hardware that accept MSA-compliant SFP+ copper modules. The transceiver includes digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) capability for real-time reporting of supply voltage, temperature and optical/electrical parameters when the host system supports these features.

Advantages

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-COPPER-BO combines a small SFP+ footprint with the convenience of an RJ-45 copper interface, enabling 10 Gbit/s links without the need for fiber. It is built to MSA standards and uses industry-grade components to ensure interoperability and long service life. Integrated diagnostic functions simplify remote monitoring and maintenance, while the compact design saves module slot space in dense equipment racks.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP-10G-COPPER-BO into an available SFP+ slot of a compatible switch, router or server according to the equipment manufacturer’s instructions. Connect the RJ-45 cable to the module and the remote device, ensuring appropriate Cat6a/Cat7 cabling for 10GBASE-T operation. Verify link status and speed via the host device management interface; enable DDM/DOM monitoring in the host if supported to read real-time diagnostic information. Power down the host only if specified by the equipment manual when hot-plugging is not recommended.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbit/s performance, use high-quality Cat6a or Cat7 cabling terminated correctly and keep copper link runs within the specified maximum distance (≈30 m). Confirm host compatibility with MSA-compliant SFP+ copper modules and enable DDM/DOM on supported hardware to monitor module health. Avoid excessive mechanical stress on the module and cable connector during installation and maintenance.
