Detailed Specifications
HPE R9Q44A Aruba 1G SFP LC LX 10km SMF TAA Transceiver
Overview
The HPE R9Q44A is an SFP optical transceiver designed for reliable, long-distance network connectivity within enterprise and service provider infrastructures. This module specifically addresses the need for stable, gigabit-speed data transmission over single-mode fiber, extending network reach up to 10 kilometers. It is engineered for use in environments where data integrity over extended links is critical, such as connecting buildings across a campus or linking remote network closets back to a central data center. Built to rigorous standards, the R9Q44A ensures seamless compatibility and performance within Aruba networking equipment. It operates at a 1310nm wavelength, the industry standard for 1000BASE-LX Gigabit Ethernet, guaranteeing predictable behavior and interoperability. This module simplifies network expansion by providing a hot-swappable, plug-and-play solution that allows engineers to activate new fiber links without service interruption. The transceiver's small form-factor pluggable (SFP) design allows for high-density port configurations in switches and routers, maximizing hardware utility in space-constrained racks. Management is streamlined through integration with the host device's operating system, which provides diagnostic monitoring of key performance metrics. This TAA-compliant model is suitable for deployment in government and federal agency networks.
