Product Description
The HP P9N40A is a high-performance Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) transceiver module engineered for demanding Fibre Channel network environments. It supports a data rate of 16 Gigabits per second (Gb/s), making it suitable for high-throughput storage area networks (SANs) and data center interconnects. The module operates at a specific wavelength of 1556.55nm, which is crucial for long-distance optical transmission, particularly when paired with single-mode fiber. Designed for extended reach, this transceiver can transmit data over distances of up to 40 kilometers (approximately 24.8 miles) using single-mode fiber optic cabling. This capability is essential for connecting geographically dispersed data centers, campus networks, or extending SAN infrastructure across significant distances. The use of single-mode fiber allows for lower signal attenuation over long runs compared to multi-mode fiber, ensuring signal integrity. The transceiver features a duplex LC connector, which is the standard for fiber optic connections, allowing for simultaneous transmission and reception of data. Its SFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment, including switches, routers, and host bus adapters (HBAs) that support SFP+ modules. The HP P9N40A is a critical component for building robust, high-speed, and long-distance Fibre Channel networks.
