Copper SFP

The Copper SFP (Small Form Factor Pluggable) modules are designed to provide high-performance, cost-effective data transmission over existing copper cabling systems. Complying with SFP MSA and IEEE Std 802.3-2002 standards, these modules offer low power consumption and a compact design, making them an efficient alternative to traditional optical modules.

Key Advantages of Copper SFP Modules:

• Efficient Transmission: Copper SFP modules extend the transmission distance beyond what SFP+ high-speed cables can achieve. They enable data transmission at speeds up to 10G using existing copper infrastructure, avoiding the need for costly new cabling.
• Cost-Effective: Unlike SFP+ optical modules, which require new cable routing, copper SFP modules utilize existing copper networks, reducing deployment costs.

Typical Applications:

• Local Area Networks (LANs)
• Gigabit Ethernet
• Switch-to-Switch Interfaces
• Router/Server Interfaces

Popular Copper SFP Models:

• 1000Base Copper SFP Module: Used for Gigabit Ethernet. While limited to a fixed speed rate, it remains a viable option for certain applications.
• 10/100/1000BASE Copper SFP Module: Supports variable speeds for both high-speed and Gigabit Ethernet, offering flexibility and innovation to meet diverse application needs.
• 10G Copper SFP+ Module: Designed for high-speed communication links, this module supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and is the first 10G optical module to transmit over network cables. It connects to SFP+ ports on switches or network cards, interfacing with devices via an RJ45 connector.

KanesBridge provides four types of Copper SFP modules: 100Base Copper SFP, 1000Base Copper SFP, 10/100/1000 Copper SFP, and 10G Copper SFP+. These options ensure compatibility and performance across various network configurations.
