Cisco SFP-10G-T-X 10GBASE-T SFP+ Copper Transceiver Module

BRAND NEW WITH FULL CISCO WARRANTY!!!

The Cisco SFP-10G-T-X is a high-performance 10GBASE-T SFP+ copper transceiver module designed to deliver 10 Gbps Ethernet connectivity over standard twisted-pair copper cabling. It enables organizations to deploy or upgrade 10 GbE links using familiar RJ-45 infrastructure without transitioning to fiber optics.

This hot-swappable SFP+ module supports 10 Gbps, 1 Gbps, and 100 Mbps data rates, providing flexibility in mixed-speed network environments. It is an ideal solution for short-reach connections within racks or between adjacent network devices where fiber is unnecessary or impractical.
