Zyxel compatible SFP-100TX Description
EdgeOptic's SFP-100TX compatible is a Zyxel-coded version of the EdgeOptic 1000M-SFP-T multi-vendor 10/100/1000BASE-T copper SFP transceiver. The original Zyxel SFP-100TX is a Fast Ethernet module operating at 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps). EdgeOptic's compatible runs on the tri-speed 1000M-SFP-T platform, which covers the OEM's 100BASE-TX rate through standard auto-negotiation while remaining available for 10BASE-T and 1000BASE-T on other RJ45 SFP ports in the same chassis.
The original Zyxel SFP-100TX is documented as 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps) only. EdgeOptic's compatible auto-negotiates to 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T to match the chassis port, including the 100BASE-TX rate the OEM is named for. The transceiver runs over unshielded twisted-pair cabling, with up to 100 m on Cat 5e or Cat 6; Cat 5 is sufficient at the 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T operating points. The RJ45 connector accepts standard structured cabling, and Auto MDI/MDI-X handles straight or crossover wiring. Operation falls in the commercial 0 to 70 degrees Celsius range on a single +3.3 V supply, and digital diagnostics monitoring is supported. The build follows the SFP Multi-Source Agreement and INF-8074i, with 100BASE-TX defined by IEEE 802.3u and 1000BASE-T by IEEE 802.3ab.
SFP-100TX is a Zyxel 100BASE-TX copper SFP, specified for 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet copper uplinks on switches with SFP slots. Compatible with Zyxel switches with SFP ports supporting 100BASE-TX copper; verify the specific switch model against the Zyxel transceiver compatibility documentation before deployment.
EdgeOptic codes the EEPROM with Zyxel-recognized identity data so the module is accepted on Zyxel switches with standard SFP host ports. Supported transceiver lists vary by switch model and firmware release, so verify the part against the chassis transceiver table and the switch firmware release notes for the specific model and software version before deployment.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor networking platforms, the SFP-100TX compatible carries CE and RoHS marking and meets the SFP Multi-Source Agreement and INF-8074i. It ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty. For deployment questions, contact our sales team.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Zyxel SFP-100TX and SFP-1000T?
SFP-100TX is the Zyxel Fast Ethernet copper SFP, specified for 100BASE-TX at 100 Mbps. SFP-1000T is the separate Zyxel Gigabit copper SFP, specified for 1000BASE-T at 1 Gbps. The two are distinct ordering codes for different line rates. Order against the exact code printed on the original module, and confirm the host port speed matches the OEM rate before swapping in a compatible.
