J9988-61001 - HP 5400r 24-Port 1gbe SFP With Macsec V3 Zl2 Expansion Module

Description

The HP J9988-61001 is a specialized network module that enhances the capabilities of compatible HP switches by providing twenty-four Gigabit Ethernet ports and robust security features. Each of the 24 ports utilizes the mini-GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) form factor, allowing for the insertion of various mini-GBIC transceivers. This flexibility enables network administrators to choose the appropriate media type (such as multimode or single-mode fiber, or copper) and distance requirements for each connection, offering a highly adaptable networking solution. A key feature of this module is its integrated MACsec (IEEE 802.1AE) support. MACsec provides hardware-based encryption and authentication for Ethernet traffic, ensuring data confidentiality and integrity between network devices. This is crucial for organizations that need to secure sensitive data in transit, comply with regulatory requirements, or protect against man-in-the-middle attacks, especially in campus or data center environments. Designated as a v3 module, it signifies an updated version with potential enhancements in performance, features, or compatibility compared to earlier iterations. The J9988-61001 is designed for enterprise-level deployments where secure, reliable, and high-performance Gigabit connectivity is paramount. Its combination of port density, media flexibility via mini-GBICs, and advanced MACsec security makes it a valuable component for building secure and efficient network infrastructures.
