Ubiquiti Accessories Series · NDAA COMPLIANT
Multi-Gigabit Copper Connectivity for UniFi Fiber Switches
The Ubiquiti UACC-CM-RJ45-MG is an NDAA compliant, high-performance 10G SFP+ to RJ45 copper transceiver module designed to convert standard SFP+ ports on UniFi switches and gateways into flexible multi-gigabit Ethernet connections. Engineered to support auto-negotiated speeds of 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps, and 10 Gbps, this adapter allows you to integrate high-speed copper devices into your fiber backbone over Cat 6A cabling at distances up to 100 meters.
Connector Type
RJ45 Ethernet
Max Distance
100m over Cat 6A
Power Draw
Ultra-Low 1.9W
Energy Efficient & Hot-Swappable
Unlike older 10G copper transceivers that generate significant heat and tax switch power supplies, the UACC-CM-RJ45-MG operates with exceptional energy efficiency, consuming a maximum of just 1.9W. This thermal optimization ensures safe, high-density populating of SFP+ ports without risk of overheating. The hot-swappable architecture allows for seamless deployment without powering down your critical networking hardware.
Multi-Rate Auto-Negotiation
Seamlessly scales from 1 Gbps up to 10 Gbps, ensuring compatibility with legacy devices, modern WiFi 6/7 access points (2.5G/5G), and high-speed servers.
Extended Reach Connections
Capable of pushing 10 Gbps throughput up to a full 100 meters (328 ft) using high-quality Cat 6A copper cabling, bypassing the standard limitations of fiber.

Is the Ubiquiti UACC-CM-RJ45-MG NDAA compliant?
Yes, the UACC-CM-RJ45-MG adapter is fully NDAA compliant, containing no prohibited components, making it suitable for government and enterprise deployments.
Can I use this adapter in a standard 1G SFP port?
While physically compatible with SFP slots, it is designed for SFP+ ports. Performance and compatibility in older 1G SFP ports will depend on the specific switch architecture.
Why is 1.9W power consumption important?
Older 10G copper adapters draw up to 3W, creating excessive heat and often preventing you from populating adjacent ports. The 1.9W draw on the UACC-CM-RJ45-MG allows for safer, denser deployments.
What cable do I need to reach 100 meters at 10 Gbps?
To achieve the full 100-meter distance at 10 Gbps speeds, high-quality Category 6A (Cat 6A) cabling is required.
