Transceptor SFP BlueOptics BO08C28S1 (980-9I251-00IS00-BO) — Cobre RJ45, 1000BASE-T, 100 m, 0°C–+70°C

BlueOptics BO08C28S1 is a compact copper SFP transceiver designed to provide 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over standard RJ45 cabling. Compatible with NVIDIA (980-9I251-00IS00-BO), this SFP module inserts into standard SFP ports on switches, media converters and servers to enable copper uplinks and device migration without changing existing cabling infrastructure. The module supports link distances up to 100 metres over Cat5e/Cat6 copper cables and is specified for operation in environments with ambient temperatures from 0°C to +70°C.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a simple way to add copper RJ45 ports to devices with SFP interfaces, reducing the need for additional external adapters. Its compact SFP form factor allows hot-plug installation and easy replacement. Compatibility with common switch vendors means straightforward integration into network racks and data center equipment while supporting standard Gigabit Ethernet speeds for access and aggregation links.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on your switch, media converter or server while the device is powered as supported by the host (hot-plug tolerant). Connect an RJ45 Ethernet cable from the module to the copper network endpoint. The host device should automatically detect the module and negotiate a Gigabit link; verify link and speed status through the host management interface. To remove, disconnect the Ethernet cable and extract the SFP module using the transceiver's release mechanism.

Recommendations

Use Category 5e or Category 6 shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cabling in good condition for reliable 1000BASE-T performance. Ensure adequate cooling and ambient temperature control to keep the operating environment within 0°C to +70°C. When replacing modules, power-down is not required if the host supports hot-swap, but verify compatibility and firmware settings with the switch vendor when deploying in managed networks.
