SFP Module ALLNET ALL4797-INDU 2.5Gbit RJ45 Industrial (-40 to +85°C)

The ALLNET ALL4797-INDU is an industrial SFP module that delivers 2.5 Gbit/s Ethernet over a standard RJ45 copper interface. Engineered for harsh environments, the module supports extended operating temperatures from -40 to +85°C and provides a compact, hot-pluggable solution for converting SFP/SFP+ slots to copper ports. It is intended for use with industrial switches and routers where reliable, high-speed copper connectivity is required in confined spaces or outdoor enclosures.

Advantages

The module combines multi-gigabit performance with RJ45 convenience in a small form factor compatible with standard SFP slots, enabling easy port expansion or media conversion without lengthy downtime. Extended temperature rating and rugged design reduce failure risk in industrial and outdoor applications. The plug-and-play nature allows quick installation and replacement, minimizing configuration effort.

Suitable for

• Industrial network switches and routers requiring copper uplinks
• Outdoor enclosures and cabinets exposed to temperature extremes
• Factory automation and control systems with limited space
• Edge sites or remote locations needing reliable 2.5 Gbit/s copper links

Key specifications

• Data rate: 2.5 Gbit/s over copper
• Interface: RJ45 8P8C connector via SFP form factor
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to +85°C
• Form factor: SFP hot-pluggable module
• Transmission medium: Cat5e/Cat6/Cat6a copper cabling (cable quality affects reach)
• Latency: low, suitable for Ethernet switching environments

How to use

Insert the SFP module into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch or router until it latches; connect a compatible RJ45 copper cable to establish a 2.5 Gbit/s link. The device typically negotiates speed and duplex automatically with the connected equipment; confirm link status via the host device's management interface or LEDs. For replacement, remove the module while the host port is administratively disabled if recommended by the equipment vendor, then insert the new module and reconnect the cable.

Usage recommendations

Use high-quality shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cables appropriate for 2.5 Gbit/s transmission and ensure proper cable termination. Install the module in climates or enclosures consistent with its extended temperature rating, and verify compatibility with the host equipment's supported SFP modules. Avoid mechanical stress on the RJ45 connector and ensure electrostatic precautions when handling the module.
