HPE JG263A X260 Mini D-28 to 4-RJ45 0.3M Router Cable

Detailed Specifications

The HPE JG263A is a specialized breakout cable designed to connect specific HPE networking hardware. Its primary function is to provide multiple RJ45 connections from a single high-density 28-pin D-Sub (DB-28) port, often found on certain HPE router interface modules. This cable is an essential component for technicians and network engineers who need to deploy or maintain supported HPE routers, enabling the expansion of a single port into four standard network interfaces for device connectivity. This accessory is engineered for specific hardware compatibility, ensuring reliable signaling and physical connection integrity within demanding enterprise network environments. The short 0.3-meter (1 ft) length is intentional, designed for clean and efficient cable management within a single rack, connecting a router module directly to a nearby patch panel or switch without creating excess cable slack. Built to official HPE specifications, this cable ensures proper pinout and electrical characteristics. Its deployment is straightforward: the DB-28 male connector securely fastens to the router module, while the four RJ45 female connectors provide standard interfaces for typical network patch cords. This component is crucial for activating the full port capacity of compatible modules.
