Detailed Specifications

HPE P9H32-63001 

B‑Series 32 Gb Fibre Channel Short‑Wave (SW) SFP28 Transceiver Module

The HPE P9H32‑63001 is a high-speed 32 Gb Fibre Channel short‑wave SFP28 transceiver module designed to support enterprise-grade SAN connectivity. Operating at 850 nm wavelength, it delivers up to 28 Gbps of throughput and offers full backward compatibility with 16 Gb and 8 Gb Fibre Channel Channel links. Tailored for HPE B-Series SAN switches, including SN6600B and SN8600B models, it connects switches, HBAs, and storage arrays over multimode fiber with reliable low latency. Featuring plug-and-play simplicity and real-time diagnostics, this short‑wave module is ideal for high-density storage fabrics and critical SAN back-end connectivity.

Features

Built using industry-standard VCSEL laser and PIN photodiode optics, the P9H32‑63001 supports fiber types up to OM4 for distances up to approximately 100 meters (around 70 m on OM3) . It fully adheres to SFF‑8431/8432, FC‑PI‑6, SFP MSA, and other Fibre Channel specifications, ensuring interoperability across certified HPE B-Series switches and server-side Fibre Channel ports. The module provides integrated digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM), allowing administrators to track link parameters such as TX/RX power, temperature, and voltage in real time—an essential feature for proactive SAN maintenance Compact and hot-swappable, the SFP28 form factor facilitates tool-free installation and maintenance without disruption to fiber link operations. With a low power profile (~1 W typical) and tolerance for standard data center temperatures (0 °C to 70 °C), the transceiver is suited for high-density chassis environments. Backward speed compatibility enables smooth migration in mixed-speed Fibre Channel fabrics, simplifying transition strategies while maintaining link integrity

Advanced Options

The P9H32‑63001 is engineered for mission-critical Fibre Channel environments, delivering consistent 32 Gbps throughput with minimal latency and reliable optical transmission. VCSEL-based design ensures signal integrity over multimode fiber, even in mixed-vendor or high-congestion link scenarios. Real‑time diagnostics (DDM/DOM) empower IT teams to monitor optical signals—including power, temperature, and voltage—enabling predictive maintenance and reducing SAN downtime risks

Product Key Features

  • 32 GbFibre Channel support (backward compatible with 16G/8G speeds)

  •  Short‑wave optics (850 nm VCSEL) over MMF—up to 100 m on OM4, ~70 m on OM3

  •  Duplex LC connector; plug‑and‑play SFP28 form factor

  •  Built-in digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) for real-time link metrics

  •  Compliance with FC‑PI‑6, SFF‑8431/8432, SFP MSA, RoHS, IEC safety standards

  •  Low power (~1 W), hot-swappable design for high-density deployments


Reliability & Performance

Fully certified with HPE B-Series Fibre Channel switches and compatible with third-party FC fabrics, it supports plug-and-play interoperability and mixed-speed deployments. Its hot-swappable SFP28 design allows rapid field replacement without shutting down SAN links. At typical power consumption near 1 W, it maintains thermal efficiency even in dense chassis. Designed for standard data center operating range (0 °C to 70 °C), it offers robust reliability and supports seamless migration between FC link rates—modernizing storage fabrics while preserving legacy connectivity flexibility.
