HP JD197B 48-Ports 100Base-FX Fiber Module 48 x 100Base-FX

Description

The HP JD197B is a specialized network module that significantly expands the fiber optic connectivity options for compatible HP network switches. It boasts an impressive density of 48 ports, each supporting the 100Base-FX standard. This standard operates over multimode or single-mode fiber optic cables, enabling reliable and high-speed data transmission over extended distances compared to traditional copper cabling. The use of LC connectors ensures a secure and compact connection for each fiber optic cable. This module is ideal for environments requiring extensive fiber optic uplinks or connections to end devices that necessitate fiber connectivity. Applications include connecting switches in different wiring closets, linking network segments across buildings, or providing high-density fiber access in data centers. The 100Base-FX standard provides Fast Ethernet speeds, which are suitable for a wide range of network traffic, including general data, voice, and video, especially where distance or electromagnetic interference is a concern. Integration of the JD197B module into a compatible HP switch allows for a substantial increase in the network's fiber optic reach and port density. This facilitates network segmentation, improves network resilience, and supports the deployment of high-performance network architectures. The module is designed for easy installation into the switch's expansion slot, enabling quick upgrades and modifications to the network infrastructure.
