MicroOptics MO-UF-RJ45-1G SFP Copper Network Transceiver Module 1000 Mbit/s

The MicroOptics MO-UF-RJ45-1G is a high-performance SFP copper transceiver module engineered to provide reliable 1000 Mbit/s data transmission over copper cabling. This module features a standard RJ-45 interface, allowing for a seamless transition or expansion of existing fiber-optic switch ports to support copper-based network infrastructure. It is designed to maintain stable and efficient connectivity in demanding enterprise networking environments and data center applications.

Advantages

This transceiver module offers a cost-effective way to utilize existing copper cabling within a fiber-optic network architecture. By converting an SFP port into an RJ-45 interface, it provides flexibility for network administrators to connect various devices without the need for expensive media converters. The module is built for consistent performance, ensuring low latency and high reliability for critical data transfers. Its compact design allows for high-density port utilization in switches and routers, making it an essential component for scalable network upgrades.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers and workstations to network switches
• Expanding copper network infrastructure using existing fiber-optic equipment
• Enterprise-level local area networks
• Data center management and server room connectivity

This module may not be suitable for long-distance data transmission, as it is limited to a maximum range of 100 meters. It is also not compatible with devices that require fiber-optic connections or those that do not support the SFP interface standard.

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1000 Mbit/s
• Interface: RJ-45
• Maximum reach: 100 meters
• Form factor: SFP

To use the MicroOptics MO-UF-RJ45-1G, simply insert the module into an available SFP port on your network switch or router. Ensure that the device is powered off or that the port is configured to accept the module before insertion. Once the module is securely seated, connect your Cat5e or Cat6 copper cable to the RJ-45 port. The network device should automatically detect the module and establish a link, provided the port settings are correctly configured for 1000 Mbit/s operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network switch or router supports SFP copper modules
• Ensure the total cable length does not exceed 100 meters
• Check compatibility with your existing network cabling standards

For optimal performance, ensure that high-quality Cat6 cabling is used to maintain signal integrity over the full 100-meter distance. Regularly inspect the RJ-45 port for dust or debris to prevent connection issues.
