Detailed Specifications
HPE P54849-001 64Gb SFP56 LW 10km FC Transceiver
Overview
The HPE P54849-001 is a high-performance, hot-pluggable SFP56 optical transceiver designed for modern Storage Area Networks (SANs). As a core component for data center and enterprise storage environments, it provides reliable, high-bandwidth 64Gbps Fibre Channel (64GFC) connectivity. This module is engineered to solve the critical need for faster data access and lower latency between servers, such as the HPE ProLiant family, and high-performance storage arrays. This transceiver leverages 64GFC technology to accommodate the demanding throughput requirements of flash storage, virtualization, and data-intensive applications. Its long-wave (LW) optics enable connections over single-mode fiber optic cabling for distances up to 10 kilometers. This capability provides significant flexibility in data center architecture, allowing for connections between buildings or across large campus environments without signal degradation. Engineered for seamless integration, the P54849-001 module fits into the SFP56 ports of HPE B-series Fibre Channel switches and host bus adapters (HBAs). Its hot-pluggable nature allows for installation or replacement without powering down the host system, ensuring maximum uptime for critical network infrastructure. This transceiver is an officially qualified component, guaranteeing compatibility and optimal performance within an HPE ecosystem.
