HPE R0R41B

Overview

The HPE R0R41B is a 10GBASE-T SFP+ transceiver designed to deliver 10 gigabit Ethernet speeds over existing copper cabling. It connects directly to SFP+ ports and uses standard CAT5 cables, supporting link distances up to 30 meters. This makes it an efficient solution for upgrading network infrastructure without the need for fiber optics or media converters, ideal for data centers, server rooms, and lab environments.

Key features

• Enables 10 gigabit transfer speeds over familiar copper cabling, simplifying network upgrades.
• Compatible with standard CAT5 cables, allowing reuse of existing infrastructure and reducing costs.
• Supports link distances up to 30 meters, covering typical short-reach connections between racks or devices.
• Compact and lightweight design minimizes space usage and strain on SFP+ ports.
• Plug-and-play installation with no additional configuration required, speeding deployment.
• Built-in RJ45 interface provides straightforward connectivity to copper networks.

Key specs

• Data rate: 10 gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T)
• Connector type: RJ45 for copper cabling
• Maximum cable length: 30 meters
• Form factor dimensions: 6.63 x 5.38 x 1.44 cm
• Weight: approximately 2 kilograms
• Wavelength: 850 nm

Connectivity and compatibility

This transceiver is designed to fit into SFP+ slots on compatible HPE switches and network interface cards, providing seamless integration with existing hardware. It supports standard CAT5 copper cabling, which is widely used in enterprise and data center environments, making it a practical choice for network teams looking to boost throughput without rewiring.

Installation and setup

Installation is straightforward: simply slide the transceiver into an available SFP+ port and connect your existing RJ45 patch cable. The link automatically negotiates to 10 gigabit speeds without requiring manual configuration, allowing for quick upgrades and minimal downtime.

Ideal uses and environments

This module is well suited for short-reach connections such as top-of-rack switches, server-to-switch links, and small server rooms where fiber deployment is impractical or costly. It supports virtualization hosts, backup targets, and storage nodes that demand higher bandwidth, making it a strong choice for IT teams upgrading their copper-based networks to 10G speeds.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
