10G SFP+ RJ45 Copper Module

This V2 Technologies RTL8261 module adds a 10GBASE-T RJ45 port to any 10G SFP+ slot. It uses a Realtek RTL8261 chip and supports CAT6A or CAT7 cabling up to 30 metres. The transceiver draws a maximum of 3W and is hot-pluggable with no driver installation required.

Network Teams Upgrading Copper Links

Suits engineers connecting switches, routers or servers that already have 10G SFP+ cages and want copper drops instead of fibre. Not for buyers who need fibre connectivity, longer copper runs or different media types.

30-Metre CAT6A/7 Reach on 10G SFP+

The single spec that decides fit is the 30-metre distance limit over CAT6A or CAT7 at 10Gbps. If your cable runs exceed that length, or the host equipment lacks 10G SFP+ ports, this module will not work.

Questions about this item

What SFP+ port and cable type does the RTL8261 module require?

The module uses an SFP+ form factor with an RJ-45 interface and works with CAT6A or CAT7 copper cables up to 30 metres.

How is the RTL8261 installed and what common mistake should be avoided?

Insert the hot-pluggable module into a 10G SFP+ port; no software or configuration is needed, but ensure the host device actually provides 10G SFP+ ports or the module will not function.

What ongoing thermal consideration does the RTL8261 need?

The Realtek RTL8261 chip draws up to 3 W, so the module runs hot and will shut down automatically if it overheats; maintain adequate airflow around the SFP+ cage to prevent thermal throttling.
