HPE C8S75B MSA 2040 1Gb/s RJ-45 iSCSI SFP Transceivers Module 4-Pack

Description

The HPE C8S75B is a specialized package containing four 1Gb/s SFP transceiver modules that facilitate iSCSI connectivity for the HPE MSA 2040 storage array. Unlike traditional fiber optic SFPs, these modules feature an RJ-45 connector, allowing for iSCSI traffic to be transmitted over standard Ethernet copper cabling. This provides a cost-effective and flexible solution for building storage area networks (SANs) without requiring dedicated fiber optic infrastructure. These transceivers are specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with the HPE MSA 2040 storage system, enabling administrators to connect servers to the storage array using the iSCSI protocol over Gigabit Ethernet. iSCSI allows block-level storage access over IP networks, offering the benefits of SANs with the ubiquity and simplicity of Ethernet. The SFP form factor ensures that these modules are hot-pluggable, allowing for easy installation and replacement without interrupting storage operations. The 4-pack quantity provides a convenient solution for environments that require multiple iSCSI connections to their MSA 2040 storage. The HPE C8S75B is crucial for organizations looking to leverage Ethernet infrastructure for their storage networking needs, offering reliable performance and simplified management.
