The TRENDnet 10G RJ-45 Copper SFP+ Module, model TEG-10GBRJ, converts a standard SFP+ slot into an RJ-45 multi-gigabit port for additional high-speed copper connections. This 10G copper SFP+ module works with standard SFP+ slots commonly found in network switches and fiber media converters. Save on device costs by repurposing the unused SFP+ slots of a switch with the TRENDnet 10G copper SFP+ module for reliable copper connectivity. Connect devices up to 30 meters using Cat6a cables (or better) at 10G speeds. Compliant with IEEE 802.3an 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Backward compatible with IEEE 802.3bz Multi-Gigabit (2.5G / 5G) speeds. Meets IEEE 802.3ab and IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet standards. Shielded RJ-45 copper interface. Low Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) design. Supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM). Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP+) and Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) compliant. Hot-pluggable. Low power consumption.
