Detailed Specifications
HP J9538A - 8-Port 10GbE SFP+ v2 zl Module
Overview :
The HP J9538A is a modular network switch line card designed for engineers who need to scale 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in enterprise chassis systems. It delivers eight open SFP+ ports supporting 10 GbE links, enabling high-bandwidth aggregation, uplink, or data-centre fabric roles. This module is optimized for use in the HP/Aruba 5400 zl and 8200 zl series switches, fitting branch-office, campus core, or data-centre aggregation deployments. Because the module plugs into a chassis slot, it integrates with the existing management framework of the switch family and supports hot-swap replacement without impacting other modules.
Key Features :
Eight open 10 GbE SFP+ ports in a single module slot
Compatible with HP 5400 zl / 8200 zl series chassis switches
Module dimensions 10.3 × 8.13 × 1.75 in (fits standard module bay)
Operating temperature 0 °C to 40 °C when certain mini-GBICs installed
Weight approximately 2.1 lb (0.95 kg) for rack-mount module
