HP-compatible SFP+ copper module

The StarTech.com JL563A-ST is a hot-swappable SFP+ transceiver built to the IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-T standard. It delivers 10 Gbps over RJ-45 copper cabling up to 30 m and is programmed for HP switches and routers.

Suited for 10G copper uplinks in HP gear

This module fits network teams extending 10 Gigabit Ethernet over existing Cat6 or Cat5e runs within the 30 m reach. It is not for links beyond that distance, nor for equipment requiring fibre-optic SFP+ modules or higher line rates.

30 m maximum reach over copper

The single specification that decides fit is the 30 m (98.4 ft) maximum transfer distance at 10 Gbps. If the link exceeds this length, a different transceiver type is required.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the JL563A-ST generate when running continuously at 10 Gbps?

The copper SFP+ module has no moving parts and draws power only from the host SFP+ port, so it adds negligible heat and produces no audible noise during all-day operation.

What switch or router must I already own for this SFP+ transceiver to work?

You need an HP switch or router with an SFP+ cage that accepts 10GBASE-T copper modules; the JL563A-ST is programmed for HP JL563A compatibility.

Will the JL563A-ST link at 10 Gbps with older Cat5e patch cables I already have installed?

The module supports 10/100/1000/10000 Mbps auto-negotiation, but 10 Gbps over copper requires Cat6 or better; Cat5e will negotiate down to 1 Gbps.
