HP 300834R-B21 2Gb/s SFP 300m 850nm LC Multi-Mode Fiber Transceiver

Product Description

The HP 300834R-B21 is a high-performance SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceiver module designed for 2Gb/s data transmission over multi-mode fiber optic cables. This module is commonly used in storage area networks (SANs) for Fibre Channel connectivity and also supports Gigabit Ethernet applications. Its primary application is for short-reach communication within data centers, server rooms, and enterprise networks where high bandwidth is required over limited distances. The transceiver operates at a wavelength of 850nm, which is the standard for multi-mode fiber applications. This allows for efficient signal propagation within the fiber core, enabling data transfer up to a maximum distance of 300 meters. The use of multi-mode fiber is a cost-effective solution for these shorter links, providing the necessary bandwidth for demanding applications. The module is equipped with an LC connector, which is the industry standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable physical interface. The 300834R-B21 is designed for hot-swappable installation, allowing network administrators to add or replace modules without interrupting network operations. This feature enhances network flexibility and simplifies maintenance. Its compatibility with standard SFP ports ensures interoperability with a wide range of HP and third-party networking equipment. This transceiver is a crucial component for building reliable and high-speed network infrastructures, particularly for storage connectivity and high-performance data transfer within localized environments.
