SFP and SFP+ Module Cable Specifications
Each port must match the wave-length specifications on each end of the cable, and the cable must not
exceed the stipulated cable length. Copper 1000BASE-T SFP module transceivers use standard four
twisted-pair, Category 5 cable at lengths up to 328 feet (100 meters).
