1000BASE-T SFP transceiver

This Brute Networks module provides a copper RJ45 interface for an SFP slot on a router, switch or server. It is built for network administrators who need a cost-effective way to add or replace a Gigabit Ethernet link without changing existing infrastructure.

100 m reach over copper

The transceiver operates at 1 Gbps over standard twisted-pair cable up to 100 m. It handles typical campus or data-centre runs comfortably, but cannot extend beyond that distance or connect to fibre media.

SFP MSA compliance limits

The unit meets Multi-Sourcing Agreement mechanical and electrical specifications and is coded for D-Link equipment. It initialises identically to an OEM module, yet it lacks Digital Output Monitoring and does not support fibre connectors or longer-reach standards.

Questions about this item

Will the DGS-712 1000BASE-T SFP transceiver work in an older D-Link switch that only supports 100 Mbps ports?

The module runs at 1 Gbps transfer rate and requires a Gigabit-capable SFP slot; a 100 Mbps-only port will not negotiate a link.

Which front-panel LEDs confirm the Brute Networks DGS-712 is linked and passing traffic?

Power, Link/Activity, Full-Duplex and Speed indicators show the transceiver is powered, linked at 1 Gbps and actively transmitting.

Does the DGS-712 box include the copper patch cable needed to reach 100 m, or must I buy it separately?

Only the SFP transceiver module is supplied; a Cat5e or better RJ45 patch cable for the 100 m run must be purchased separately.
