ASFP-10-T, 10GBASE-T is high performance and high speed copper transceiver module over Cat 6a/7 cable with a link of 30m. It is specifically designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet bidirectional communication. The benefit is that it uses standard-based technology with the familiar RJ45 connector and provides backward compatibility with legacy networks. 

The 10GBASE~T SFP+ copper transceiver is expanding the application of the copper based technology. Before, the direct attach cables with the limitation of reach distance is 10 meters, even the active version only could up to 15 meters. However, the 10GBASE-T SFP+ Copper Transceiver can transfer over distances of 30 meters with 10GE data, over Cat 6/6a/7 cable. Though at present the Cat 6/6a/7 cabling provides limited support for 10GBASE-T in some environments, the compelling features of this 10GBASE-T SFP+ copper transceiver make it a favorable choice for long-term consideration. This module has the benefits of backwards compatible and usable for nearly every copper infrastructure, full PHY (physical layer) presentation, and cost-effective for today and future applications. With platform advancements bringing down the price and power consumption for 10GBASE-T switches, there are a lot of affordable switches entering the market from various manufacturers. This is why 10Gtek made this compatible product, as a leader in the small form pluggable (SFP+) transceiver compatible market.
