HPE 10GBASE-T SFP+ RJ45 30m Transceiver

The HPE R0R41B is a 10GBASE-T transceiver designed for SFP+ ports, giving you 10 gigabit Ethernet performance while letting you keep your existing copper infrastructure. It plugs directly into an open SFP+ slot and connects to standard CAT5 cabling through its built-in RJ45 interface, so there is no need to pull new fiber or buy separate media converters.

With support for runs up to 30 meters, this module covers typical top-of-rack or server-to-switch links inside data centers, labs, and small server rooms. Network teams that want to migrate from one-gigabit to ten-gigabit links can drop the transceiver into compatible HPE switches or NICs and immediately see faster throughput for virtualization hosts, backup targets, and high-traffic storage nodes.

Installation is straightforward. Slide the unit into the SFP+ cage, snap in the RJ45 patch cable you already use, and the link comes up at ten gigabits without extra configuration. The module measures roughly 6.63 by 5.38 by 1.44 centimeters, so it stays clear of neighboring ports, and its lightweight construction—about 2 kilograms per the product sheet—means it places minimal strain on the slot.

Whether you are refreshing an existing copper network or building a short-reach backbone between racks, the HPE R0R41B provides a practical way to reach ten-gigabit speeds without the cost or complexity of fiber runs.
