BlueOptics JL563A-BO — 10GBASE-T RJ-45 SFP+ for HPE Aruba
10GBASE-TRJ-45Up to 30 mHPE JL563A coded
The BlueOptics JL563A-BO is a 10GBASE-T copper SFP+ transceiver coded for the HPE JL563A, which turns an SFP+ port into an RJ-45 port reaching up to 30 m on Cat6A or Cat7 cable. It is a third-party compatible module made by CBO GmbH in Germany under the code BO08J78S6, with a metal enclosure and a maximum draw of 2.5 W. It is meant for HPE Aruba AOS-S and AOS-CX switches that accept the JL563A, to connect 10G servers and NAS units over copper. In practice, a copper module is the quickest way to connect a nearby device that only has an RJ-45 port, without buying a media converter. Stay within the reach shown in the table and use fibre for anything further away.
Compatibility — check before buying:
This is a copper module for twisted-pair cable, not a fibre optic. It needs an SFP+ (10G) port; it will not work in a 1G-only SFP port. Reach is 30 m on Cat6A or Cat7. BlueOptics sells the same hardware coded as JL563B-BO and, for HPE Instant On switches, S0G18A-BO — order the code your switch expects. Limits on how many copper modules a switch can run are not published by BlueOptics; we check them for your model. Not sure? Send us your switch model and the cable run and we check it before you order.

Key Features
Coded for the HPE part
The module identifies itself as the HPE JL563A, so the switch treats it like the original part.
Runs warm, plan for it
Copper SFP+ modules draw up to 2.5 W, several times a fibre optic. HPE itself limits the reach of this module type to 30 m because of the power available to the transceiver.
Copper instead of fibre
Turns an SFP or SFP+ cage into an RJ-45 port, so a switch uplink can reach a server, NAS or camera recorder over twisted-pair cable. Reach depends on the speed and the cable category — see the reach rows in the table.
Hot-swappable
Modules plug into a live port without shutting the switch down, so a link can be added or replaced during working hours. Seat it until it clicks and use the latch to remove it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
BlueOptics modules are a sensible way to add 10G copper ports to Aruba switches at lower cost than the HPE part, with a 5-year warranty. Keep copper runs to 30 m, and for longer links use SR fibre optics. If your switch lists JL563B, choose the JL563B-BO. Every order is backed by Singular’s local support in Cyprus — if a link will not come up, send us the port status from the switch and we help you find out whether it is the optic, the cable or the configuration. Browse all transceivers and DAC cables or the switches they plug into.
Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
You need a 10G RJ-45 port in an Aruba SFP+ slot that accepts the JL563A, for a device within 30 m.
Skip it if
You run HPE Instant On (take S0G18A-BO), the port is 1G-only, or the run is over 30 m.
