Medený RJ-45 transceiver modul BlueOptics MGBIC-GTX-BO 100m SFP

The BlueOptics MGBIC-GTX-BO copper RJ-45 transceiver module is a compact SFP solution for connecting Ethernet devices over standard copper cabling. Designed for 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps network environments that require a short-range copper link, this SFP module fits into SFP ports on switches, routers or media converters to provide a reliable RJ-45 copper interface in a small form factor. With a maximum supported transfer distance of 100 meters and a lightweight construction, the module is intended for straightforward integration into existing network infrastructure.

Advantages

The module delivers a copper RJ-45 interface in an SFP package, enabling flexible port configuration and easy hot-swap replacement. Its compact size and low weight make it suitable for dense equipment racks and installations where space and weight are limited. The design focuses on compatibility with common network devices and on providing a stable copper connection for distances up to 100 meters, reducing the need for fixed integrated ports or separate adapters.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP port on your network device while the device is powered according to the manufacturer's instructions for hot-pluggable modules. Connect a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the module and to the remote device, ensuring the cable category supports the required data rate and distance. Verify link and activity LEDs on the host device and confirm network configuration (speed, duplex, VLAN settings) as needed. If the host device requires specific driver or firmware support for third-party modules, follow the host vendor's compatibility and installation guidelines.

Recommendations

Use Category 5e or better twisted-pair copper cabling for reliable communication up to 100 meters. For optimal performance in Gigabit environments, prefer Cat6 or Cat6a cables and avoid excessive bending or electromagnetic interference near power lines or heavy machinery. When deploying in racks or field enclosures, ensure adequate ventilation and confirm host device compatibility with SFP copper transceivers before installation.
