Koper-SFP-transceiver BlueOptics B304-BO 1000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics B304-BO is a Copper SFP transceiver module built for Gigabit Ethernet links. Designed to fit standard SFP slots, this module delivers a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s over copper cabling and provides one RJ-45 Ethernet port. With support for typical copper distances, it enables short-range connections of up to 100 m and is suitable for integration into switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP-form factor modules.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP form factor for flexible installation and easy hot-swap replacement. It supports 1 Gbit/s operation over existing copper infrastructure, allowing fast data throughput without the need for fiber optics for short runs. Compatibility with standard SFP interfaces ensures broad device interoperability while the built-in RJ-45 connector simplifies cabling and reduces the need for additional adapters.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics B304-BO into an available SFP slot on your networking device while the device is powered according to the manufacturer's instructions or hot-swap if supported. Connect a suitable Cat5e or Cat6 copper Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port and to the corresponding network device. Configure link speed and duplex settings on connected equipment if manual configuration is required; otherwise, rely on auto-negotiation. Verify link status through the host device’s management interface or LEDs.

Recommendations

Use high-quality Cat5e or Cat6 cabling for reliable performance and ensure cable runs do not exceed 100 m for optimal signal integrity. Confirm SFP compatibility with the host device and consult device documentation for any vendor-specific firmware requirements or supported transceiver lists.
