Get more from your Switch: SFP to RJ45 Converter
Do you have a high-quality UniFi Switch with free SFP-Ports, but actually need another classic RJ45 connection? The Ubiquiti UACC-CM-RJ45-1G is your solution. This compact SFP / SFP\+ Modules transceiver converts any SFP slot into a fully functional Gigabit Ethernet Port. Instead of expensive fiber optic connections, you can easily use your existing, cost-effective copper Ethernet Cables. Perfect for repurposing an SFP uplink port as an additional LAN port for a PC, an IP Camera, or another Network device.
Gigabit Performance in Seconds: Simple Plug-and-Play
You can save yourself complicated configurations. The UACC-CM-RJ45-1G module follows the Plug-and-Play principle: simply insert it into the SFP port of your Ethernet Switch or Router, and it's ready for operation. Thanks to Auto-Negotiation, the module automatically detects the connected speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode. It is powered directly via the SFP slot and requires no drivers or software – an ingeniously simple method to increase the port density on your Network infrastructure.
Maximum Flexibility for your Network Setup
This module gives you the freedom to design your Network infrastructure exactly according to your needs. It is the ideal choice if you need to bridge the gap between fiber optic slots and copper requirements. Whether you want to connect an older printer with 100 Mbps or a modern PC with Gigabit speed – the module adapts flexibly. This way, you achieve maximum flexibility, without having to invest in new hardware. It is one of the most useful SFP / SFP\+ Modules for any professional or private Network.
Reliable, Compatible, and Efficient
The UACC-CM-RJ45-1G was developed for use in Ubiquiti devices such as the UniFi Switch series, but thanks to MSA compliance, it is often also compatible with devices from other manufacturers. It bridges distances of up to 100 meters, which corresponds to the standard for copper Ethernet. For longer distances, fiber optics remain the first choice, but within a 19-Inch Racks or office environment, this module is unbeatably practical. With a minimal power consumption of only 1.2 watts, it also works extremely efficiently and unobtrusively in the background.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does the UACC-CM-RJ45-1G module also work in switches from other manufacturers like Cisco or Netgear?
Although designed for Ubiquiti Networks devices, it is based on the Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) standard. Therefore, in many cases, it also works in devices from other manufacturers that have MSA-compliant SFP / SFP\+ Modules ports. However, Ubiquiti does not provide an official guarantee for its function in third-party devices.
Can I achieve a speed of 2.5 Gbit/s with this module?
No, this module is explicitly limited to a maximum data rate of 1 Gbit/s (1000 Mbps). For higher speeds like 2.5G, 5G, or 10G, a different SFP / SFP+ Modules is required, such as the Ubiquiti UACC-CM-RJ45-10G, which is part of the Ubiquiti Accessories range.
Does the module require a separate Power Supply or special drivers?
No, the module is powered directly via the SFP / SFP+ Modules slot of the host device (e.g., an Ethernet Switch) and requires no drivers. It is a pure plug-and-play hardware module, simplifying your Network setup.
What is the difference between an SFP port and a normal RJ45 port?
An RJ45 port is a fixed interface for Copper Ethernet Cables. An SFP port is a modular slot that can accommodate various SFP / SFP+ Modules – typically for fiber optics or, with this adapter, also for copper cables. This offers greater flexibility in your Network infrastructure.
Can I use this module for a connection over 100 meters?
No, the maximum range is limited to 100 meters by the 1000Base-T standard. For longer distances, a fiber optic SFP / SFP+ Modules with a corresponding fiber optic cable must be used, which is often part of more extensive Cabling solutions.
Is an Ethernet Cable included?
No, the Ethernet Cable must be purchased separately.
