Copper Transceiver Module BlueOptics SFP-10G-T-CT-BO 10000 Mbit/s RJ-45

The BlueOptics Copper Transceiver Module SFP-10G-T-CT-BO is a compact SFP+ copper module that provides 10GBASE-T connectivity via an RJ-45 port. Designed for hot-pluggable use in compatible network equipment, the module supports data transfer rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s, operates at 3.3 V input voltage and is housed in a durable metal casing with a lightweight form factor of approximately 3 g. The transceiver follows MSA-compatible mechanical and electrical specifications to enable integration into switches, routers and other networking devices that accept SFP+ copper modules.

Advantages

The module delivers 10 Gbit/s Ethernet over twisted-pair copper using a standard RJ-45 connector, eliminating the need for optical fibers where copper cabling is preferred. Its metal housing offers mechanical robustness and electromagnetic shielding while keeping the weight low. MSA-compatible design increases interoperability with a wide range of SFP+ ports and the module supports digital diagnostics monitoring when the host hardware implements DDM/DOM functions.

Suitable for

• 10GBASE-T uplinks between switches and servers over copper cabling
• High-speed network aggregation and access links in data centers
• Replacement or upgrade of SFP+ copper ports in compatible networking equipment
• Environments where RJ-45 connectivity is required instead of optical transceivers

Key specifications

• Interface type: RJ-45 (SFP+ copper)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Operating voltage: 3.3 V input
• Product material and finish: metal housing, silver colour
• Weight: approximately 0.003 kg (3 g)
• Form factor: SFP+ hot-pluggable module
• Supported protocols: Ethernet 10G (10GBASE-T); supports operation with DDM/DOM if host supports it
• Typical reach: suitable for copper twisted-pair connections over standard structured cabling (typical distances depend on cable category and environment)

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP-10G-T-CT-BO module into a compatible SFP+ slot on the powered-off or hot-pluggable host according to the equipment manufacturer's instructions. Push the module until it latches, then connect a suitable RJ-45 copper cable to the module's port. Verify link status and speed in the host device management interface. If the host supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM), enable or query diagnostic parameters via the device management tools to monitor supply voltage, temperature and optical/electrical parameters where available.

Usage recommendations

Use high-quality Category 6A or better twisted-pair copper cabling for reliable 10 Gbit/s links over copper and follow the host equipment vendor's compatibility list. Ensure firmware and drivers on the switching or server hardware are up to date to maximize interoperability and to enable DDM/DOM features when available.
