Will not work with MikroTik CRS305 line and RJ45 issues

" product from H!Fiber. These modules have some connection issues where the RJ45 connectors do not always snap into the socket on the module. None audible clicking and cables often don't seat and *pull* when you don't plug them in. I've experienced the same thing with 2 other brands in the same price range (Ipolex and 10Gtek) and yes, I've tried other ethernet cables - same result. They do not work with the Mikrotik CRS305 line of products.RouterOS reports these modules (and another brand in the same price range) as OEM SFP-GE-T devices.I've tried them on RouterOS v7, 1rc3 (testing) and on v6. 48.4 (Stable) Same result, the only ones I haven't had any issues with are the QSFPTEK 10GBASE-T SFP+ modules, which is very unfortunate as I don't need a 10Gb RJ45 for my use case, and at the moment Writing about both cost about $44 per module. I will post this review on other devices that I have purchased and tested.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Very expensive
