Ricetrasmettitore SFP+ in rame BlueOptics 10338 10000 Mbit/s argento

The BlueOptics 10338 is a copper SFP+ transceiver designed for 10 Gbit/s network links. Housed in a silver metal casing and weighing approximately 20 g, this compact module provides a standard SFP+ electrical interface for short-reach copper connections. It supports data transfer at up to 10000 Mbit/s and is intended for integration into compatible switches, routers and network interface cards that accept SFP+ modules.

Advantages

The module offers a compact form factor enabling dense port configurations and easy hot-plug installation in SFP+-capable equipment. Its copper interface simplifies cabling for short distances and avoids the need for optical transceivers or fiber infrastructure where copper cabling is sufficient. The metal housing provides mechanical protection and thermal conductivity to support stable operation under typical data center and enterprise networking conditions.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet short-reach connections over copper
• Upgrading switches or routers with available SFP+ uplink ports
• Server NIC expansion where SFP+ copper links are required
• Laboratory and development environments testing SFP+ copper connectivity

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Connector medium: copper (electrical)
• Form factor: SFP+ transceiver module
• Typical weight: 0.02 kg
• Housing: metal, silver-coloured

How to use

Insert the transceiver into an empty SFP+ port on compatible network equipment until it clicks into place. Connect a compatible copper twinax or direct-attach copper cable to the module's electrical interface, ensuring correct orientation and secure seating of the cable connectors. After physical installation, verify link status and speed in the device management interface and, if necessary, configure the port for 10 Gbit/s operation. For hot-plug operations, follow the host device vendor guidelines to avoid link disruption.

Recommendations

Use the transceiver with certified SFP+ ports and copper DAC or twinax cables rated for 10 Gbit/s. Maintain firmware and driver compatibility on connected devices, avoid exposing the module to excessive mechanical stress or moisture, and observe recommended ambient temperature ranges specified by the host equipment manufacturer to ensure reliable performance.
