HPE P49384-001 NDR 2x400Gb Multi-Transceiver module

Detailed Specifications

The HPE P49384-001 is a hot-pluggable OSFP (Octal Small Form-factor Pluggable) optical transceiver designed for extreme-scale, high-performance computing (HPC) and AI data center environments. It addresses the critical demand for ultra-high bandwidth and low-latency interconnects, enabling rapid data transfer between servers and switches. This module is engineered to support the latest InfiniBand Next Data Rate (NDR) standard, providing a robust solution for scaling complex computational workloads. At its core, this transceiver leverages advanced 100G-PAM4 electrical and optical modulation to deliver exceptional throughput. It features two independent 400Gb/s ports, providing an aggregated bandwidth of 800Gb/s from a single OSFP module. This dual-port capability allows for greater network design flexibility, supporting either two straight 400Gb/s connections or splitter cables for connections to 200Gb/s endpoints, which is critical for optimizing data flow in distributed computing and AI training clusters. Designed for seamless integration into modern data center infrastructure, the P49384-001 module is deployed directly into OSFP-compatible ports on switches and network adapters. Its hot-pluggable nature ensures that network maintenance and upgrades can be performed without causing system downtime. Management is streamlined through compliance with the CMIS 4.0 standard, allowing for detailed monitoring and control within sophisticated network orchestration platforms.
