HP J4858BZ 1.25Gb/s SFP 550m 850nm Duplex LC MMF Transceiver

Product Description

The HP J4858BZ is a high-performance Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module engineered for Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over multi-mode fiber optic infrastructure. Operating at a data rate of 1.25 Gb/s, this module complies with the 1000Base-SX standard, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment that supports this specification. The 850nm wavelength is specifically chosen for its effectiveness with multi-mode fiber, making it suitable for applications within buildings or across campuses where shorter fiber runs are prevalent. This transceiver is capable of transmitting data up to a maximum distance of 550 meters, providing ample reach for typical enterprise network segments, data center interconnects, or backbone connections. The use of a duplex LC connector ensures a secure and reliable physical connection to the fiber optic cabling. The LC connector is a popular choice due to its small size and robust locking mechanism, which prevents accidental disconnections. Designed for hot-pluggable installation, the J4858BZ allows network administrators to insert or remove the module without disrupting network operations, thereby enhancing network flexibility and minimizing downtime. This feature is crucial for maintaining high availability in critical network environments. The HP J4858BZ serves as a dependable component for expanding network capacity and connectivity, particularly in environments that leverage existing multi-mode fiber infrastructure.
