SFP-Transceiver-Modul BlueOptics J8177DCM Copper 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics J8177DCM Copper SFP transceiver module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and is designed to provide a compact, hot-pluggable interface for network equipment with SFP slots. Built for copper connections, this module enables reliable short-distance links between switches, routers and other network devices while preserving standard SFP form-factor compatibility.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver offers straightforward installation with hot-swap capability and broad compatibility with devices that accept standard SFP modules. The copper interface removes the need for fiber cabling for short links, simplifying deployment and maintenance. With a rated transfer speed of up to 1250 Mbit/s, it supports common network workloads and provides stable physical-layer connectivity for Ethernet-based systems.

Suitable for

• Short-reach Ethernet links between switches and routers
• Server uplinks where copper SFP ports are available
• Network equipment testing and lab environments
• Replacing or upgrading existing copper SFP modules

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (copper)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Form factor: Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP)
• Connectivity: RJ-45 copper physical layer
• Compatibility: Designed for devices with standard SFP slots

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics J8177DCM module into an available SFP slot on your switch, router or network appliance while the device is powered on or follow your equipment vendor's hot-swap guidance. Connect a compatible copper Ethernet cable (with the appropriate RJ-45 connector) to the transceiver and to the remote device. Verify link status and negotiated speed through the host device management interface and ensure firmware or driver settings allow the use of third-party SFP modules if required by your equipment.

Recommendations

Use this copper SFP module for short-distance connections within the same rack or between nearby racks. Verify that the host device supports 1250 Mbit/s SFP modules and check link negotiation settings after installation. Store and handle the transceiver in a clean, static-free environment and cap unused ports to prevent dust contamination.
