Description

The J8177D-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Aruba J8177D. This 1000BASE-T copper SFP transceiver delivers plug-and-play compatibility with Aruba switches and routers, providing gigabit connectivity over standard Cat5e or Cat6 copper cabling. - IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T compliance guarantees interoperability with any gigabit Ethernet port supporting the standard - SFP form factor with RJ-45 connector, 1000 Mbps data rate, up to 100m reach over Cat5e/Cat6 copper cable - SGMII host interface support for 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation on compatible platforms - Operating temperature range 0 to 70°C suitable for standard commercial networking environments - Hot-swappable design allows installation and removal without powering down the host device

Features

• IEEE 802.3ab compliance ensures the transceiver negotiates link speed and duplex automatically with any 1000BASE-T port, eliminating manual configuration
• Built-in copper PHY translates between the host SGMII/SerDes interface and twisted-pair signaling, enabling the SFP slot to function as a standard Ethernet port
• SGMII host interface required for 10/100/1000 Mbps multi-rate operation; SerDes-only hosts will operate at 1000 Mbps fixed rate
• RJ-45 connector accepts standard UTP Cat5e or Cat6 patch cables, avoiding the cost and fragility of fiber infrastructure for short reach connections under 100 meters
• Hot-swap capability allows field replacement during maintenance windows without disrupting adjacent ports or requiring chassis power-down
• Low power consumption under 1W typical, suitable for high-density switch installations with limited power budget per port

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Aruba J8177D?
A: Yes. The J8177D-BCC is engineered to the same IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T and SFP MSA standards as the Aruba J8177D, with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. It provides plug-and-play compatibility in Aruba switches and routers with SFP slots, operating at 1000 Mbps over Cat5e or Cat6 copper cable.

Q: Which Aruba platforms support this transceiver?
A: This transceiver is compatible with Aruba switches and routers that have SFP slots supporting 1000BASE-T copper modules, including documented compatibility with 2530, 2540, 2930F, 6300, and 6400 series platforms. Verify your specific platform supports copper SFP modules via the hardware datasheet, as not all SFP ports include SGMII or SerDes interfaces required for copper PHY operation.

Q: Does this module support 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps speeds, or only gigabit?
A: Multi-rate 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation requires the host switch to provide an SGMII interface. If your platform uses a SerDes-only interface, the module will operate at 1000BASE-T (gigabit) only and will not link at 10 or 100 Mbps. Most modern Aruba switches with copper SFP support provide SGMII, enabling full auto-negotiation across all three speeds.

Q: What is the maximum cable length supported, and does cable category matter?
A: The transceiver supports up to 100 meters per the IEEE 802.3ab standard over Cat5e or Cat6 unshielded twisted-pair cable. Cat5e is the minimum recommended grade; Cat6 or higher provides better margin for environments with high electromagnetic interference. Patch cables should meet TIA-568 wiring standards and maintain proper twist rate to achieve full distance without bit errors.

Q: Can I use this transceiver to connect directly to a server NIC or another switch with a copper Ethernet port?
A: Yes. The RJ-45 port on the transceiver functions as a standard 1000BASE-T Ethernet interface and will auto-negotiate with any gigabit copper port, including server NICs, desktop adapters, IP cameras, or another switch uplink. Use a standard straight-through Cat5e/Cat6 patch cable; the PHY handles MDI/MDI-X crossover automatically via auto-MDIX.
