Koper-SFP-module Digitus DN-81005

The DIGITUS Copper SFP-module DN-81005 is a compact, MSA-compliant 1.25 Gbps transceiver that provides a copper RJ45 uplink for SFP ports. With a metal housing and a small form factor (15 × 15 × 70 mm), the module enables adding an RJ45 connection to Gigabit switches that have free SFP slots. It supports hot-plug installation and operates in temperatures from 0 °C to 70 °C.

Advantages

This SFP copper module delivers up to 1250 Mbit/s over an RJ45 interface and is MSA compatible for broad interoperability with common network switch manufacturers. The metal housing provides durable build quality, the compact size saves rack space, and the hot-pluggable design allows installation without powering down or interrupting network traffic.

Suitable for

• Adding RJ45 ports to Gigabit switches with available SFP slots
• Short-range copper uplinks in campus and office networks
• Replacing or extending existing SFP uplink ports

How to use

Insert the DN-81005 SFP copper module into an available SFP slot on a compatible network switch until it latches. Connect a standard Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port on the module and verify link/activity LEDs on the switch. Because the module is hot-pluggable, installation can be performed while the switch is powered and handling traffic. Ensure the switch firmware supports third-party MSA-compliant modules if required.

Recommendations

Use the module for short-distance copper connections within the specified temperature range (0 °C to 70 °C). Verify compatibility with your switch vendor if the switch enforces vendor-specific module checks, and avoid exposure to moisture or mechanical shock.
