StarTech.com SFPC1110 1Gbps RJ-45 Transceiver

Network downtime can cripple your business, especially when a single faulty link slows everything down. The StarTech.com SFPC1110 1Gbps RJ-45 Transceiver is a hot-swappable copper module that gives you reliable gigabit Ethernet over standard RJ-45 cabling, letting you upgrade or replace ports without pulling the plug on your network.

StarTech.com SFPC1110 1Gbps RJ-45 Transceiver - the simple fix for unreliable copper links

If you are struggling with intermittent connections or need to extend gigabit Ethernet to devices that only support copper, the problem is often a mismatch between your switch and the transceiver. This leads to packet loss, reduced speeds and frustrated users. The StarTech.com SFPC1110 1Gbps RJ-45 Transceiver solves this by providing a Cisco-compatible, plug-in solution that guarantees 1 Gbps performance over up to 100 m of copper cable, keeping your network fast and stable.

Usages of StarTech.com SFPC1110 1Gbps RJ-45 Transceiver

The module works in a range of environments where copper connectivity is required.

• Adding gigabit ports to existing Cisco switches without replacing the whole chassis.
• Connecting desktop PCs or servers in office spaces where fibre is impractical.
• Extending network reach in data-centre racks using standard Cat5e/6 cabling.
• Upgrading legacy equipment to meet modern bandwidth demands.
• Providing a quick replacement for a failed SFP in mission-critical installations.
