D-Links DGS-712 1000BASE-T Copper Small Form Pluggable (SFP) transceiver is based on the SFP Multi Source Agreement. It is compatible with the Gigabit Ethernet and 1000BASE-T standards as specified in IEEE 802.3z and 802.3ab. The DGS-712 plugs into any standard SFP interface allowing for 1000Base-T Gigabit transmission over standard Category 5 twisted pair copper.

Features:

– Convert an SFP Fiber Interface into a 1000Base-T Copper Uplink
– Hot Pluggable
– Compatible with All Standard 1000Base-T Twisted Pair Copper Cabling
– Up to 1.25Gbps Bi-directional Data when Combined with an Additional DGS-712

Specifications:

– Standard
    – IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet

– Transceiver Type
    – SFP (Small Form Pluggable)

– Connector
    – RJ-45

– Auto MDI/MDIX
    – Automatic crossover detection enabled
    – External crossover cable not required

– Data Rate
    – 1,000 Mbps (IEEE 802.3 compatible)
    – 10/100/1000 BASE-T operation requires the host system to have an SGMII interface with no clocks. With a SERDES interface, this transceiver will operate at 1000BASE-T only
