Rapide II™ 10G Base-T SFP Copper RJ-45 30m Transceiver Module

Description This transceiver module is an electrical Small Form Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP ) transceiver module for the high-performance integrated full duplex data link at 10.3125Gbps over Category Cat 6a/7 UTP. Interoperability with legacy Ethernet equipment auto-negotiation is of particular significance as it enables data center expansions and expenditures to occur incrementally. The added benefit is that it uses standards-based technology that uses the familiar RJ45 connector and provides backward compatibility with legacy networks. The 10G BASE-T electrical SFP transceivers use an integrated RJ-45 connector with a transformer and PHY IC. The link length is up to 30m over four pair Category Cat 6a/7 UTP All Pactech SFP support the 2-wire serial communication protocol outlined in the SFP MSA. These SFP use a 128-byte E2PROM with an address of A0h. The 10GBASE-T physical layer IC can also be accessed via the 2-wire serial bus at address ACh.
