HP J8175A 10Gbps Xenpak 300m 850nm Duplex SC MMF Transceiver

Description

The HP J8175A is a high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet Xenpak transceiver module. The Xenpak form factor is an older, larger standard for 10Gbps transceivers, typically found in enterprise-grade networking equipment from the early to mid-2000s. This module is specifically designed for use with multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables, enabling high-bandwidth data transmission over shorter to medium distances within a data center or campus network. Operating at a wavelength of 850nm, the J8175A supports data rates of 10Gbps, making it suitable for demanding applications that require significant network throughput. It connects to the fiber optic cable via duplex SC connectors, which are common for fiber optic installations. The module is capable of transmitting data up to a distance of 300 meters over multi-mode fiber, providing a robust solution for intra-building or campus connectivity. While Xenpak is a legacy form factor, the J8175A was a critical component for enabling 10Gbps Ethernet in its time. It is designed for compatibility with specific HP networking hardware that supports the Xenpak interface. This transceiver plays a vital role in ensuring high-speed data flow for applications such as server-to-server communication, storage networking, and high-performance computing clusters where bandwidth is a primary concern.
