HP 746960-001 40Gb/s QSFP+ 100m MPO Multi-Mode Fiber Transceiver

Product Description

The HP 746960-001 represents a significant leap in network connectivity, offering a 40Gb/s data rate through its QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) form factor. This module is engineered for environments that demand extreme bandwidth, such as high-performance computing clusters, large-scale data centers, and backbone network aggregation points. The QSFP+ interface supports parallel optics, allowing for the transmission of multiple data lanes simultaneously, which is crucial for achieving such high aggregate speeds. This transceiver is specifically designed for multi-mode fiber (MMF) applications, enabling high-speed data transfer over shorter distances, typically up to 100 meters. The use of an MPO (Multi-fiber Push-On) connector is standard for QSFP+ MMF transceivers, as it consolidates multiple fiber strands into a single, compact connector, facilitating easier cable management and higher port density. The 850nm wavelength is commonly used for MMF short-reach applications. Adhering to the QSFP+ Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), the HP 746960-001 ensures interoperability with a wide range of networking equipment from various manufacturers. This transceiver is an ideal solution for network architects looking to build scalable, high-performance networks that can handle the ever-increasing demands for data throughput. Its robust design and high speed make it a cornerstone for future-proofing network infrastructure.
