Realizing conversion between optical port and Copper RJ-45 port: SFP-GE-T

The Copper RJ-45 Transceiver is a device used to realize the function of converting an optical port to an Copper RJ-45 and plays an important role in network communications. The Copper RJ-45 Transceiver does not have a photoelectric conversion process, but only transmits electrical signals. This article introduces the functions, classification, and usage of Copper RJ-45 Transceivers.


What is an copper RJ-45 transceiver?


The copper RJ-45 transceiver is also called an optical-to-copper RJ-45 transceiver. It is a module that supports hot swapping and is packaged in SFP. The connector type is RJ45. In addition, since the transmission distance of the copper RJ-45 transceiver is 10-30m or 80-100m, the copper RJ-45 transceiver is mainly used for short-distance data transmission.


The function of the optical port to copper RJ-45 transceiver


The optical port to copper RJ-45 transceiver is mainly used to solve the interconnection problem between optical equipment and electrical equipment. It can convert optical fiber signals into electrical signals, allowing optical devices to communicate with electrical devices.


Classification of copper RJ-45 transceivers


According to different technical standards and transmission rates, copper RJ-45 transceivers can be divided into various types. According to the packaging classification, copper RJ-45 transceivers can be divided into three categories: SFP copper RJ-45 transceiver, SFP+ copper RJ-45 transceiver and GBIC copper RJ-45 transceiver. According to the transmission rate, it can be divided into 100M copper RJ-45 transceiver, Gigabit copper RJ-45 transceiver, adaptive copper RJ-45 transceiver and 10G copper RJ-45 transceiver. The 100M copper RJ-45 transceiver is an copper RJ-45 transceiver with a transmission rate of 100M. The Gigabit copper RJ-45 transceiver is a copper RJ-45 transceiver with a transmission rate of 100M. The adaptive copper RJ-45 transceiver is an copper RJ-45 port that meets the three rates of 10/100/1000BASE. Modules (100M copper RJ-45 transceiver, Gigabit copper RJ-45 transceiver, adaptive copper RJ-45 transceiver are all SFP copper RJ-45 transceivers), 10G copper RJ-45 transceiver has a transmission rate of 10G. Copper RJ-45 transceivers with different rates are suitable for different types of networks;


1. 10 Gigabit copper RJ-45 transceiver: An copper RJ-45 transceiver that supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet signals with a transmission rate of 10Gbps. It is commonly used in high-speed network environments such as data centers and cloud computing.

2. Gigabit copper RJ-45 transceiver: An copper RJ-45 transceiver that supports Gigabit Ethernet signals with a transmission rate of 1Gbps and is widely used in various enterprise networks and home networks.

3. Adaptive copper RJ-45 transceiver: It is suitable for different types of network equipment, such as switches, routers, etc.

4. 100M copper RJ-45 transceiver: The highest supported rate is 100M, usually used on 100M SFP interface. Since 100BASE-T ports are mostly provided through the native RJ-45 ports of switches and network cards, the usage scenarios of this module are relatively limited.

 

Maximum rate and transmission distance of copper RJ-45 transceiver


The maximum transmission rate of the 100M copper RJ-45 transceiver is 155M, the maximum transmission rate of the Gigabit copper RJ-45 transceiver is 1Gbps, and the maximum transmission rate of the 10G copper RJ-45 transceiver is 10Gbps. These rates are sufficient for most network communication needs. The maximum transmission distance of SFP copper RJ-45 transceiver (Gigabit copper RJ-45 transceiver and below) is 100m, and the maximum transmission distance of SFP+ copper RJ-45 transceiver (10G copper RJ-45 transceiver) is 30m.


How to use the copper RJ-45 transceiver


When using an copper RJ-45 transceiver, you first need to ensure that the interfaces between the device and the copper RJ-45 transceiver are consistent, and the corresponding optical fibers or cables are correctly connected. Then, insert the copper RJ-45 transceiver into the corresponding slot of the device and ensure a secure connection. Next, make the corresponding configuration according to the device's operation interface or indicator lights.


The copper RJ-45 transceiver is an important network device that can realize the interconnection between optical ports and copper RJ-45 ports. copper RJ-45 transceivers play an important role in modern network communications, providing efficient and stable interconnection solutions for different types of network equipment.
