Product Description
The HP AE493-63001 is a high-performance optical transceiver module designed for extending network connectivity over long distances using single-mode fiber optic cable. This SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) module is specifically engineered for Fibre Channel applications, providing a reliable 4Gb/s data transfer rate. Its compact form factor allows it to be plugged into compatible switches, routers, and host bus adapters, offering a flexible and modular approach to network infrastructure. With a maximum transmission distance of 10 kilometers, this transceiver is ideal for connecting devices across large campuses, between buildings, or in metropolitan area networks. The 1310nm wavelength is standard for single-mode fiber communication over these distances. The use of single-mode fiber (SMF) ensures signal integrity over extended lengths, minimizing signal loss and dispersion compared to multimode fiber. The AE493-63001 features an LC connector, which is a small form-factor fiber optic connector known for its secure latching mechanism and high-density applications. This transceiver is a crucial component for building robust Fibre Channel SANs (Storage Area Networks) and other high-speed network links where reliable, long-range optical communication is required. Its compatibility with HP networking equipment, as well as other standards-compliant devices, makes it a versatile choice for enterprise network deployments.
