HPE JD261-61101 S1000-S/A 2 x Ports 1000Base-X Expansion Module

Product Description

The HPE JD261-61101 is an S1000-S/A Expansion Module designed to add high-speed fiber optic connectivity to compatible HPE FlexNetwork switches. Equipped with two 1000Base-X ports, this module utilizes SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceivers, allowing for flexible deployment with various fiber types (e.g., multimode or single-mode) and distances. This module is ideal for extending network connections over longer distances where copper cabling is impractical or for environments with high electromagnetic interference. Each 1000Base-X port supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds, ensuring high throughput for critical data transmission. The module's design allows it to be easily installed into available expansion slots on supported HPE switches, providing a straightforward method to enhance network capabilities. Its hot-swappable nature means it can be added or replaced without powering down the switch, minimizing network downtime during upgrades or maintenance. This expansion module is a valuable component for building robust and scalable network infrastructures. It enables connections between switches, servers, or other network devices over fiber optic links, offering superior performance and reliability compared to copper alternatives for certain applications. The HPE JD261-61101 is well-suited for campus backbones, data center interconnects, or any scenario requiring reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over fiber.
