ipolex SFP+ to RJ45 10Gb Module, Support 1G/2.5G/5G/10GBase-T RJ45 SFP+ Module, Compatible for Cisco SFP-10G-T, Ubiquiti UACC-CM-RJ45-MG, Mikrotik, Netgear, TP-Link, D-Link and More, up to 30 Meters

This device is a perfectly find SFP+ device and I am sure it works fine with compatible hardware. I am just leaving this review to ward off any others that may get here the same way I did. I purchased this item based on a recommendation in the Netgate pfSense forums reporting it was compatible with the XG-7100 device's SFP ports. It was NOT compatible with the XG-7100. The device ran hot and became very unstable after a few hours. I tried several different settings with no improvement, no connectivity. If you want a compatible device, try this one: https://a.co/d/0auzfbfW. It needs to be the 10G-T 80m variant.

This SFP+ was compatible with my Unifi UDM Pro and it work as stated and as it should, the temp is good and no errors from the Router dashboard. No regrets on the purchase.

I have about 75ft to 80ft of CAT6 (including the patch cables) I routed through the wall a few years ago and I'm able to maintain a stable 10g connection with low RETR on iperf3 between these transceivers. They get very hot, too hot to touch for more than 1 sec, but they function well. They do cool down very quickly (few minutes to about room temp) once removed or powered off. I bought about 10 in total and I would buy more if needed.

So I was skeptical about these as there was conflicting things saying that these only work with certain router manufacturers. Well I have used it on atleast 5 different router manufacturers and it worked great. They work with netgear and tp link just to name a couple of the bigger known manufacturers. Installation is simple and takes just a minute or two. Just make sure you have the module seated correctly in your device and it will just work as intended.

I'm not sure what to expect out of a SFP+ to 10GbE adapter, but I didn't expect it to run this hot. If you touch it for more than 2 or 3 seconds you will most likely burn your fingers! It heats up the whole side of my Yuanley 9-port (1-SFP+, 8-2.5GbE) Enet switch. The transceiver is connected to the switch with a 6' Cat6a patch cable, so it doesn't have to drive the signal very far. It makes the metal cover on the switch too hot to touch after a few seconds (though I don't think you'd burn your fingers, as with touching the transciever module itself). Even though the whole package (switch + transceiver module) seems to work blazingly fast and reliably, it's hard to imagine how a piece of electronics could survive very long at these temperatures. I'll follow up with further reports if/when problems arise. I wouldn't buy another of these from this manufacturer. Not sure if I'll be just as disappointed in another product, though.

First the specifics: I have this transceiver in the WAN port of my UDM PRO (set to Auto Negotiate) and connected to a 2.5Gb modem. The UDM side is seeing this as a 10Gb connection and the transceiver is correctly transforming the connection to 2.5Gb for the modem. Qualities: As with most if not all SFP+ to RJ45 transceivers, this unit gets hot. More importantly, it comes with a 3 year warranty which shows the manufacturer's trust in the product. Another important consideration is power draw as there is a wide disparity between brands. ipolex seems to be in the middle here although I didn't test this for myself. Experience: I can see from a speed test that I am getting nearly the entire 1.2Gb bandwidth promised by my ISP. Due to my configuration, I did not test at faster speeds. I got a little over a year with no problems and then started to have daily connectivity issues. After a few months of that, the transceiver died. It was difficult to figure out how to get warranty service since the manufacturer, like most, requires that I go through the retailer (Amazon) and Amazon doesn't make it easy to find the link. However, once I got to the correct screen and was now dealing directly with ipolex, the process went quickly and they replaced the faulty transceiver. Start to finish, I had the replacement in my hands in 4 days. Quality: One failure is not an indication of quality as I have had failures with every brand. I use that much equipment. Best I can say here is, let's see how long the replacement lasts.

I purchased this item to use in my UniFi Dream Machine Pro. I inserted the ipoplex SFP+ into the WAN SFP+ slot in the UniFi Dream Machine Pro. The white link light illuminated and the UDM Pro allowed all my devices to connect to the internet. Everything seemed to work until I performed several speed test using different speed test sites. My Verizon Fios 1Gbps connection performed well when downloading but the upload speeds averaged between 5-10Mbps. I tried to manually set the speed on the SFP+ port to 1Gbps but that didn’t resolve the issue. I shutdown then turned on the UDM pro while the SFP+ was still connected but that didn’t resolve the poor upload speeds. I changed the WAN SFP+ port to autonegotiation then I shutdown the UDM Pro, turned on the UDM Pro, conducted speed test and the upload speeds were still averaging 5-12Mbps. I switched back to the 1Gbps WAN port, conducted speed test and my upload speeds were excellent (900Mbps - 922Mbps). I decided to purchase a SFP+ from Ubiquiti to see if the upload speeds on SFP+ WAN port on the UDM Pro will perform as expected. I initiated the return process for the Ipoplex but for now I’ll hold onto the Ipoplex in case the actual issue is the SFP+ WAN port on the UDM Pro. I’ll try the Ubiquiti SFP+ when it arrives. If the upload speed doesn’t improve I’ll know something is wrong with the SFP+ WAN port and not the Ipoplex or Ubiquiti SFP+ transceivers. Until then I have to give this product 1 star but I may have to upgrade it if the SFP+ WAN port is the culprit. The Ubiquiti SFP+ arrived and its working well. My FiOS 1Gb ISP connection download and upload speeds are as expected. Average download speed is 850Mbps and average upload speed is 900Mbps. The Ipoplex SFP+ have been returned. I will only use Ubiquiti SFP+ in my UDM Pro and US-16-XG.

so far has lived up to expectations and works great in my 10 Gig router to convert to RJ45. a

As described

Solid performance with a stable 10G link to Mac Studio. However, it runs exceptionally hot during use (can't even touch it). Adding a small heatsink + cooling fan is a must.

Work with CRS305-1G-4S+IN

I am quite happy with this purchase so decided to write a somewhat detailed review. I bought a pair of these 10GbaseT SFP+ to cascade switches. I am using it in my home lab to set up a 10Gbe back haul between a switch in the basement and second switch in my office. Both have been been set and forget. I have stress tested it with Iperf and am very happy that I get over 9000 mbs throughput consistently. Please note, I am using the 30M rating ones, and they are working perfectly despite my wiring being only Cat 5a. My longest run is roughly 15m. If these don't work for longer runs, i would feel confident to try the more expensive 80m version due to the performance these have. I hope this helps answer some questions.
