SFP transceiver module Copper BlueOptics 808-39001-BO 1000BASE 100 m Grey

The BlueOptics 808-39001-BO Copper SFP transceiver is a 1000BASE-T module designed for Ethernet connections over twisted-pair copper cabling. It supports Gigabit Ethernet data rates up to 1.25 Gbit/s and a maximum operating distance of 100 meters when connected to standard Cat5e/Cat6 cabling. The module is compact and lightweight (approx. 20 g) and uses an RJ45 interface compatible with SFP cages that accept copper SFP modules. The Grey housing and MSA-compliant form factor allow integration into a wide range of switches, routers and other networking hardware that support 1000BASE-T SFP transceivers.

Advantages

This BlueOptics 1000BASE-T SFP module offers standardized MSA compatibility and an RJ45 electrical interface for straightforward plug-and-play installation in supported SFP slots. It transmits data at Gigabit speeds over existing copper infrastructure, enabling network upgrades without converting to fiber. The module is manufactured using industry-grade components and is tested for interoperability with common networking platforms, providing predictable operation and long service life under normal operating conditions.

Suitable for

• Connecting Gigabit Ethernet endpoints to switches and routers over copper cabling
• Extending network links to patch panels and wall outlets within 100 m
• Replacing or adding SFP ports in data center or enterprise network equipment that supports 1000BASE-T SFPs
• Temporary or permanent links where fiber is not required or available

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP form factor with RJ45 electrical connector
• Transmission standard: 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Maximum data rate: up to 1.25 Gbit/s
• Maximum link distance: up to 100 meters over twisted-pair copper (Cat5e/Cat6)
• Operating medium: copper twisted-pair cable (shielded or unshielded as supported by host device)
• Housing colour: Grey
• Typical weight: approximately 0.02 kg

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP module into a compatible SFP cage on a switch, router or other host device while the host is powered according to the vendor's guidance (hot-plugging is supported in most platforms). Connect an RJ45 patch cable from the module to the remote Ethernet device or patch panel. Configure the host device network settings if required; the transceiver operates as a passive electrical interface following the 1000BASE-T specification and generally requires no additional configuration. Monitor link LEDs or the host system interface status to confirm successful negotiation at 1 Gbps.

Recommendations

Use Cat5e or Cat6 twisted-pair cabling in good condition to achieve the specified 100 m range and full Gigabit throughput. Ensure the host device firmware or driver supports third-party 1000BASE-T SFP modules and verify link settings after installation. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or moisture and follow ESD precautions when handling the module.
