HP R0Q23AR B-Series 32Gb/s 32GBase-SW MMF 850nm 150m SFP28 Transceiver

Product Description

This HP R0Q23AR transceiver module represents the SFP28 standard, offering a significant increase in data rate over its predecessors, supporting up to 32Gb/s. It is specifically designed for short-reach, high-bandwidth applications commonly found within data centers, such as server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections. The SFP28 form factor allows for high port density in networking equipment. The transceiver operates using multi-mode fiber (MMF) and a wavelength of 850nm, which is typical for short-reach optical communication. It supports distances of up to 150 meters, making it ideal for intra-rack or inter-rack connectivity within a data center environment. The LC duplex connector provides a secure and reliable physical interface for the fiber optic cable. As part of HP's B-Series networking components, this transceiver is built to ensure compatibility and performance within HP's ecosystem, though it generally adheres to industry standards for broader interoperability. Its high data rate capability is crucial for supporting modern applications like high-performance computing, storage area networks (SANs), and demanding enterprise workloads that require low latency and high throughput.
