Product Description
The HP C8S72AB is a high-performance optical transceiver module engineered for demanding network environments that require high-speed data transmission over short to medium distances. Adhering to the SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) standard, this module offers a compact and hot-swappable solution for network switches, routers, and host bus adapters (HBAs). It is specifically designed for use with Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF) optic cables, which are typically less expensive and easier to handle than single-mode fiber for shorter runs. This transceiver operates at a data rate of 16Gb/s, making it suitable for high-performance applications such as Fibre Channel storage area networks (SANs) or 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks where higher speeds are required. The module utilizes an 850nm wavelength for transmission, which is characteristic of multi-mode transceivers. The maximum supported transmission distance over multi-mode fiber is up to 300 meters, making it ideal for within-building or data center interconnects. The HP C8S72AB features an LC duplex connector, the industry standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable physical link. Its compatibility with HP networking equipment, and often with other vendors' equipment through compatibility modes, makes it a versatile choice for expanding network infrastructure or replacing existing transceivers. The hot-swappable nature allows for installation or replacement without disrupting network operations.
