HPE 704657-001 Moonshot 6 x Ports 10GBase-X Uplink Module

Product Description

The HPE 704657-001 is a specialized 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplink module engineered specifically for the HPE Moonshot infrastructure. This module provides six 10GBase-X ports, utilizing SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) transceivers, to deliver high-speed connectivity from the Moonshot chassis to the broader network. Its primary role is to serve as the uplink interface, aggregating traffic from the various server cartridges within the Moonshot system and forwarding it to core network switches or routers. With its 10GbE capability, this module ensures that the Moonshot system can support demanding workloads and high-density deployments, providing ample bandwidth for applications running on the server cartridges. The use of SFP+ allows for flexibility in choosing the appropriate optical transceivers based on distance and fiber type requirements, whether it's short-reach connections within a data center or longer-reach fiber links. This uplink module is a critical component for maximizing the performance and scalability of the HPE Moonshot system. It enables efficient data flow and ensures that the unique compute density offered by Moonshot can be effectively leveraged without network bottlenecks. The HPE 704657-001 is designed for seamless integration into the Moonshot chassis, facilitating high-speed, reliable network connectivity for modern, agile IT environments.
