SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-1G-RJ45-DL-BO Fiber optic 100 m

The BlueOptics SFP-1G-RJ45-DL-BO is a 1000BASE-T SFP transceiver module designed for short-range network links up to 100 m. Housed in an aluminium enclosure and weighing approximately 20 g, this SFP module provides a compact SFP interface for integration into compatible switches, routers and other network devices that accept MSA-standard SFP modules. The module supports Gigabit Ethernet data rates and is intended for systems that require a reliable copper-based connection via an RJ45 interface implemented in the SFP form factor.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized SFP interface that enables hot-pluggable installation and straightforward compatibility with MSA-compliant hardware. Its aluminium body provides physical durability while keeping weight low. The module is suitable for use in systems where a short-distance Gigabit link is required and where space or slot-based port expansion using SFP modules is preferred. Built and tested to match compatibility requirements, it is suitable for environments that need predictable, maintained performance for copper-based 1000BASE-T links.

Suitable for

• Short-range Gigabit Ethernet connections up to 100 m
• Slot-based SFP port expansion in switches and routers
• Network equipment that requires MSA-compliant RJ45 SFP modules

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP module with RJ45 connectivity
• Supported data rate: 1 Gbps (1000BASE-T)
• Maximum transfer distance: up to 100 m over appropriate cabling
• Housing material and colour: aluminium, aluminium finish
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg (20 g)

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP-1G-RJ45-DL-BO into an empty SFP slot on a compatible network device while the device is powered on or off according to the host hardware instructions. Connect a suitable Cat5e/Cat6 twisted-pair cable to the module's RJ45 connector to establish a Gigabit Ethernet link. Ensure the host device supports 1000BASE-T over SFP and, if applicable, verify that the device firmware or software permits third-party SFP modules. After insertion and cable connection, check link and activity LEDs on the host device to confirm correct operation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use quality twisted-pair cabling rated for Gigabit Ethernet and keep patch runs within the specified 100 m distance. Confirm host compatibility and, when available, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) on supported hardware to monitor operational parameters. Handle the module by its housing to avoid contaminating the connector and store unused modules in antistatic packaging.
