Description
The HP 720187-S21 is a high-density 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) QSFP+ transceiver module designed for demanding data center and high-performance computing environments. This module leverages parallel optics technology, utilizing an MPO connector to transmit and receive data across multiple fiber strands simultaneously. It is specifically engineered for multi-mode fiber (MMF) applications, enabling high-bandwidth connectivity over short to medium distances within data centers. Operating at a typical wavelength of 850nm, this QSFP+ transceiver is commonly used for 40GBASE-SR4 Ethernet links, supporting data rates of up to 40 Gb/s. The MPO connector, which houses 12 fibers (typically 8 used for SR4), allows for a compact and efficient cabling solution. This makes it ideal for high-density switch-to-switch or switch-to-server connections where space and port count are critical considerations. This transceiver module is designed to meet the stringent requirements of modern data centers, providing reliable and high-speed interconnectivity for applications such as server aggregation, storage networking, and high-performance computing clusters. Its compatibility with industry-standard QSFP+ ports ensures seamless integration into a wide range of networking equipment from HP and other vendors. The 720187-S21 represents a key component for building scalable and efficient high-speed network infrastructures.
