Detailed Specifications
HPE FTLF8532P4BCV-HP 32GFC Short-Wave SFP+ Optical Transceiver
Overview
The HPE FTLF8532P4BCV-HP is a short-wave SFP+ optical transceiver designed for 32 Gb/s Fibre Channel SAN links. It supports link speeds up to 28.05 Gb/s, uses an 850 nm VCSEL laser, and connects via duplex LC multimode fibre. Typical reach is 100 m over OM4 fibre, 70 m over OM3, making it suitable for high-density data-centre SAN switches, servers or storage arrays requiring low-latency, high-throughput connectivity in tight rack environments. The module is hot-pluggable, SFF-8432 compliant, and supports built-in digital diagnostics for monitoring optical and electrical parameters.
