Product Description
The HP J8173A is a high-speed Xenpak transceiver module designed to facilitate 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity over long distances. The Xenpak form factor is a larger, older standard for high-speed transceivers, typically used in enterprise-grade networking equipment. This module is specifically engineered for single-mode fiber optic (SMF) applications, enabling robust and reliable data transmission over extended network links. Operating at a wavelength of 1310nm, the J8173A is optimized for long-haul communication. It supports transmission distances of up to 10 kilometers (approximately 6.2 miles), making it suitable for connecting network devices across different buildings, metropolitan areas, or backbone network segments. The use of single-mode fiber allows for higher bandwidth and longer reach compared to multi-mode fiber. The transceiver utilizes a duplex SC connector, a common and secure interface for fiber optic cabling. This ensures a stable physical connection for high-speed data flow. The HP J8173A is a critical component for building high-capacity network infrastructures that require reliable, high-bandwidth connections over significant distances, supporting demanding enterprise applications and data center interconnects.
