Nvt Phybridge NV-SFP-RJ45 Sfp RJ45 Transceiver 1000mbps

Product Description

The NVT PHYBRIDGE NV-SFP-RJ45 is a copper SFP transceiver module that converts a standard SFP port to an RJ45 interface over Cat5e cabling at 1000 Mbps. It plugs directly into any SFP-capable network switch, router, or media converter, eliminating the need for a separate copper-to-fiber conversion. Designed for structured cabling environments, this module supports Gigabit Ethernet over existing Cat5e infrastructure. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this transceiver to extend copper connectivity from SFP-equipped devices without additional adapters or media converters.

The NV-SFP-RJ45 is suited for commercial and light industrial network installations where SFP-equipped switches need to connect to copper-based horizontal cabling runs. It is a practical solution in server rooms, data closets, and distributed network deployments where Cat5e is already in place. Installation typically involves no additional hardware beyond the host device with an available SFP slot and a properly terminated Cat5e patch or horizontal cable run.

Key Features

• 1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet over Cat5e copper cabling
• RJ45 interface eliminates need for optical fiber on short copper runs
• Direct plug-in to standard SFP slots on switches, routers, and NICs
• Hot-swappable SFP form factor for live network environments
• Sold as a single unit for flexible deployment

Compatibility

Designed as a copper SFP replacement module compatible with SFP-slot-equipped Gigabit Ethernet network switches, routers, and media converters supporting the SFP MSA standard over Cat5e cabling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified low-voltage network technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Power down or disable the SFP port on the host device before inserting the module if the device does not support hot-swap. Verify Cat5e terminations meet TIA-568B or TIA-568A standards before connecting. Do not exceed the rated cable distance supported by the Gigabit Ethernet specification over copper.
