10GBase-T RJ45 30m transceiver

The HPE S0G18A is a 10GBase-T transceiver with an RJ45 connector designed for twisted-pair copper links. It operates within the HPE Networking Instant On family and supports a maximum distance of 30 m over Cat6a cabling. The module provides a single 10 Gb Ethernet port for data networking applications.

Suited for short copper uplinks; not for fibre runs

This transceiver suits administrators extending 10 Gb connections between switches or servers using existing Cat6a infrastructure up to 30 m. It does not support longer copper reaches or any fibre-based links, so buyers needing greater distance or optical interfaces must select a different module.

30 m maximum reach over Cat6a

The decisive specification is the 30 m maximum distance over Cat6a twisted pair at 10 Gb speeds. If the link exceeds this length, the transceiver cannot guarantee reliable operation and an alternative solution is required.

Questions about this item

How do I install the S0G18A transceiver and what step is often missed?

Insert the module into an SFP+ cage until it clicks, then connect a Cat6a RJ45 patch cord; the step often missed is removing the dust plugs from both the transceiver and the cable before linking them.

What maintenance or replacement will the S0G18A need over time?

No scheduled maintenance is required; if link errors appear, inspect the RJ45 contacts for dust and reseat the module, otherwise replace the unit only if it fails to establish a 10 Gb connection.

What limit appears first on the S0G18A during sustained 10 Gb traffic?

The 30 metre reach over Cat6a twisted pair is the first bound; beyond that distance the 10GBase-T signal degrades and the link will drop.
