The UBIQUITI NETWORKS SFP+ to RJ45 transceiver module, type UACC-CM-RJ45-MG, is a network module for converting SFP+ interfaces into RJ45 ports. It enables the connection of devices with SFP+ interfaces to standard Ethernet cables, supporting data transmission speeds of 10, 5, 2.5, and 1 Gbit/s. The module is designed for use in networks where flexible device connectivity via existing Ethernet infrastructure is required, for example in switches, routers, or servers with SFP+ ports.
Transceiver module
This module acts as a bridge between SFP+ and RJ45 technology. It allows the use of standard Ethernet cables (e.g. Cat6a or Cat7) with devices that only feature SFP+ interfaces. The conversion requires no additional power supply, as the module draws the necessary power through the network cable. The maximum reach is 100 meters, although the actual distance depends on the quality of the cable used and the network configuration.
Supported data rates
The module supports multiple data rates: 10 Gbit/s, 5 Gbit/s, 2.5 Gbit/s, and 1 Gbit/s. This flexibility allows adaptation to different network conditions and prevents unnecessary bandwidth waste. The speed is automatically adjusted to match the respective connection, with the maximum rate of 10 Gbit/s only achievable with compatible devices and cables. Support for 5 Gbit/s and 2.5 Gbit/s provides a practical intermediate step for networks not yet fully upgraded to 10 Gbit/s.
Compatibility and accessories
The module is compatible with SFP+ and SFP interfaces, ensuring broad usability within existing network infrastructures. It can be used in devices that support SFP+ ports, regardless of whether they are designed for 10 Gbit/s or lower speeds. The use of standard Ethernet cables (RJ45) enables easy integration into existing networks.
Installation and mounting
Installation is performed by inserting the module into a free SFP+ port on the network device. No tools or additional adapters are required. After insertion, the device automatically detects the module and establishes the connection. Configuration is done through the network device itself, with no special settings required on the module.
Operational advantages
Using an SFP+ to RJ45 transceiver module allows continued use of existing Ethernet infrastructure without switching to more expensive SFP+ cables or special connections. Support for multiple data rates ensures flexibility and future-proof connectivity. Compatibility with SFP and SFP+ ports expands application possibilities in various network environments.
