HP JW088A 1Gb/s SFP 550m 850nm LC Multi-Mode Fiber Transceiver

Product Description

The HP JW088A is a 1 Gigabit Ethernet SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceiver module, also referred to as a mini-GBIC. This module is optimized for multi-mode fiber optic connections, providing high-speed data transmission over shorter distances, typically up to 550 meters. It operates at an 850nm wavelength, which is standard for multi-mode fiber applications, making it ideal for use within buildings, data centers, or campus networks where fiber runs are localized. The transceiver features an LC duplex connector, ensuring a secure and reliable physical interface for the fiber optic cable. Its SFP form factor supports hot-swapping, allowing network administrators to install or replace the module without powering down the network equipment. This capability is essential for maintaining network uptime and simplifying maintenance tasks in busy network environments. Designed for compatibility with a wide array of HP networking switches and routers that accept SFP modules, the JW088A provides an efficient and cost-effective solution for high-bandwidth local area network connectivity. It adheres to industry standards, ensuring interoperability and consistent performance. This transceiver is a fundamental component for establishing high-speed links between network devices in environments where shorter fiber runs are sufficient.
