MSA Uncoded SFP+ transceiver

The StarTech SFP10GBTST is an MSA uncoded SFP+ module that provides a single RJ-45 copper port for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. It targets network administrators who need to add 10GBASE-T connectivity to compatible switches or routers without vendor lock-in.

Hot-swappable copper interface

The transceiver fits a standard SFP+ cage and uses a single RJ-45 female connector that accepts Cat6 or Cat5e patch cables. It draws 2.3 watts and operates from 0 to 70 degrees Celsius, with storage tolerance from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius and 5 to 95 percent relative humidity.

30 metre reach on copper

The module complies with IEEE 802.3an and delivers 10 Gbps over copper up to 30 metres or 98.4 feet. Buyers needing longer copper runs or fibre-based 10G links will need a different transceiver type.

Questions about this item

What distance does the IEEE 802.3an 10GBASE-T interface support on this module?

The IEEE 802.3an 10GBASE-T interface supports a maximum distance of 30 metres (98.4 feet) over Cat6 or Cat5e cabling.

What are the physical dimensions and weight of the SFP10GBTST transceiver?

The module measures 3.1 cm by 7.6 cm by 12.2 cm and weighs 2.0000 units, fitting a standard SFP+ slot with an RJ-45 female port.

How is the MSA uncoded SFP+ module installed, and what compatibility step is often missed?

Insert the hot-swappable module into an MSA-compliant SFP+ slot on a compatible switch or router; the step often missed is verifying the host device accepts uncoded modules before installation.
