SFP transceiver module Trendnet TEG-10GBRJ Copper 10000 Mbit/s RJ-45

The TRENDnet TEG-10GBRJ is a 10G RJ-45 copper SFP+ transceiver module that converts a standard SFP+ slot into an RJ-45 multi‑gigabit copper port. Designed for use with MSA‑compliant SFP+ slots in switches and fiber media converters, this module provides a cost‑effective way to add 10 Gigabit copper connectivity without replacing existing equipment.

Advantages

This hot‑pluggable SFP+ module supports up to 10 Gbps over RJ-45 copper and is compatible with MSA‑compliant SFP+ slots. It enables repurposing of unused SFP+ ports for multi‑gigabit copper links, reduces the need for additional hardware, and is built in a durable metal housing with typical power consumption around 3 W. The module is CE and FCC certified and operates reliably within a 0°–65° C temperature range.

Suitable for

• Adding 10G RJ-45 copper ports to switches with spare SFP+ slots
• Connecting multi‑gigabit copper devices in data centers and wiring closets
• Upgrading existing fiber media converters or switches to support copper links

Key specifications

• Interface: RJ-45 10 Gigabit port (SFP+ copper transceiver)
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbps (10000 Mbit/s)
• Maximum Ethernet distance over copper: up to 30 m (98 ft.)
• Form factor: SFP+ (hot‑pluggable), MSA compliant
• Typical power consumption: ~3 W
• Operating temperature: 0° to 65° C (32° to 149° F)
• Certifications: CE, FCC
• Brand / MPN / EAN: TRENDnet / TEG-10GBRJ / 0710931140743

How to use

Insert the TRENDnet TEG-10GBRJ module into an MSA‑compliant SFP+ slot on a compatible switch or media converter until it seats securely. Connect an RJ‑45 Ethernet cable to the module’s 10G port and to the target copper device. The module is hot‑pluggable, so it can be installed or removed while the host device is powered on; verify link status on the switch and configure port settings (speed/duplex) as needed.

Recommendations

Use high‑quality Cat6a or better cabling for reliable 10 Gbps performance up to the specified 30 m distance, and ensure the host SFP+ slot is MSA compliant and supports copper SFP+ modules before installation.
