HPE JD581C 1 x Port OC-3c/STM-1C POS Flexible Interface Controller Module (FIC) for MSR Router Flexi...

Product Description

The HPE JD581C is a specialized Flexible Interface Controller (FIC) module designed for integration into HPE Modular Switch Router (MSR) platforms. This module provides a single Packet over SONET/SDH (POS) interface operating at the OC-3c/STM-1c rate, which corresponds to a data transmission speed of 155.52 Mbps. The POS interface is a standard method for carrying IP packets directly over SONET or SDH synchronous transport frames, commonly used for high-speed Wide Area Network (WAN) connections. This module is crucial for enterprises and service providers that require robust and high-capacity WAN connectivity. The OC-3/STM-1 interface is a foundational speed for carrier-grade networks, enabling reliable data transport between geographically dispersed locations. The JD581C module utilizes SC duplex connectors, which are standard for fiber optic connections in SONET/SDH equipment, ensuring secure and high-quality signal transmission. It is designed to be inserted into specific expansion slots within the MSR router chassis. By equipping an MSR router with the JD581C module, network administrators can establish high-speed links to telecommunication carriers' networks or connect to other routers over long-haul fiber optic infrastructure. This module supports the critical requirements of WAN connectivity, including low latency and high availability, making it suitable for applications such as internet backbone connections, inter-data center links, and high-performance enterprise WAN deployments. Its flexibility allows for customization of the MSR router's capabilities to meet specific network demands.
