SFP+ module InLine 32335W 10GBase-T RJ-45 30 m

InLine 32335W 10GBase-T SFP+ module provides a copper interface for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over RJ-45 connectors, supporting link distances up to 30 meters when used with suitable Cat6/Cat6a cabling. The module fits into compatible SFP+ ports and converts optical-capable interfaces to standard copper ports, allowing deployment of high-speed 10G links in environments where fibre is not available or copper cabling is preferred.

Advantages

This SFP+ copper transceiver enables cost-effective 10 Gbps connections over existing structured cabling without requiring fibre optics. It supports standard RJ-45 connectivity and auto-negotiation for link establishment, simplifying integration with switches, servers and media converters that have SFP+ slots. The compact SFP+ form factor preserves port density while providing the convenience of copper cabling and compatibility with common network hardware.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit uplinks between servers and switches in racks where fibre is impractical
• Short-reach connections in data centers over Cat6/Cat6a cabling up to 30 m
• Migration paths from 1/10G copper networks to SFP+ enabled equipment
• Network equipment requiring RJ-45 copper interfaces via SFP+ ports

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor with RJ-45 copper port
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (10GBase-T)
• Maximum supported cable distance: up to 30 meters over Cat6/Cat6a
• Cabling type: Unshielded or shielded twisted-pair copper (Cat6/Cat6a recommended)
• Connector type: 8P8C (RJ-45)
• Link establishment: Auto-negotiation and standard Ethernet link training
• Power and thermal: Designed for typical SFP+ slot power and thermal limits (verify compatibility with host device)

How to use

Insert the SFP+ module into a compatible SFP+ port on a switch, router or media converter until it latches securely. Connect an RJ-45 terminated Cat6 or Cat6a cable between the module and the remote device. Ensure both ends are powered and configured for 10GBase-T operation; check the host device interface settings if link does not establish. Monitor port LEDs or management interface for link and status information. When removing the module, disengage the latch and pull straight out to avoid damaging the slot.

Usage recommendations

Use high-quality Cat6 or Cat6a cables for reliable 10G performance and keep cable length within the specified 30 m limit. Verify SFP+ copper module support in the host device firmware and documentation to ensure full compatibility and to avoid potential issues with power or link stability.
