Description
Introduction to the HPE Expansion Module
The HPE J9993A 5400R 1GB 10GBE 8 Ports SFP+ Expansion Module is a networking device that can be added to the HPE 5400R Switch Series to increase its connectivity and networking capabilities. The module provides 8 SFP+ ports, which support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBE) speeds. These ports can be used to connect other 10GBE devices, such as servers, storage arrays, and other switches. Additionally, the module includes 1GB of memory, which is used for storing data and managing network traffic. This expansion module is an ideal solution for organizations that require high-speed data transfer and need to expand their network capabilities.
Connectivity and Networking Capabilities
The HPE J9993A 5400R 1GB 10GBE 8 Ports SFP+ Expansion Module is a network connectivity device designed for use with the HPE 5400R Series Switch. It provides eight 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBE) ports for high-speed data transfer and increased network capacity.
The module is equipped with eight Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP+) ports, which are designed to support a wide range of optical and copper transceivers. This allows the module to support a variety of network speeds, including 10 Gbps, 1 Gbps, and 100 Mbps. The SFP+ ports also support both fiber and copper cables, providing flexibility in network topologies and cabling options.
The module also has a 1GB buffer memory, which is used to temporarily store incoming and outgoing data packets. This improves network performance by reducing the likelihood of packet loss or delay.
In addition, the HPE J9993A 5400R 1GB 10GBE 8 Ports SFP+ Expansion Module is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3ae standard for 10 Gbps Ethernet, and is compatible with the HPE 5400R Series Switch. This ensures seamless integration and compatibility with other network devices and components.
