HP 720187-B21 40Gb/s QSFP+ 100m 850nm MPO Multi-Mode Fiber Transceiver

Product Description

The HP 720187-B21 is a high-performance optical transceiver module engineered to support 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) network speeds. Utilizing the QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) form factor, it provides a compact and hot-pluggable solution for network switches, routers, and servers. This transceiver is specifically designed for short-reach, high-bandwidth applications within data centers and enterprise networks. This particular model operates at a wavelength of 850nm, which is standard for multi-mode fiber optics. It is intended for use with multi-mode fiber (MMF) cabling, enabling data transmission over distances of up to 100 meters. The MPO (Multi-fiber Push-On) connector is employed, which is a type of fiber optic connector that can accommodate multiple fibers in a single ferrule, facilitating higher density connections and simplifying cable management for high-speed links. The 720187-B21 transceiver is a crucial component for building robust and scalable network infrastructures that demand significant data throughput. Its specifications make it ideal for interconnecting high-performance switches, servers, and storage devices where low latency and high bandwidth are paramount. Compatibility with HP networking equipment is implied, ensuring seamless integration into existing HP environments.
