Axiom R9X55A-AX

Aruba Compatible 10GBASE-BX40-U SFP+ Simplex LC 40km Upstream Transceiver

A long-distance bi-directional transceiver for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over 40km.

Overview :

The Axiom R9X55A-AX is a 10GBASE-BX40-U SFP+ transceiver designed specifically for Aruba-compatible network equipment. This module facilitates high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over single-mode fiber optic cables at distances reaching 40 kilometers, making it an ideal solution for extended enterprise network backbones and long-distance data center links. Its bi-directional capability allows for efficient use of existing fiber infrastructure, reducing cabling costs and complexity.

Features :

Using bi-directional transmission technology, the R9X55A-AX transceiver sends and receives data on a single strand of fiber at different wavelengths—1270nm for transmission and 1330nm for reception. This feature allows for fiber infrastructure simplification while maintaining full-duplex 10G performance and compatibility with IEEE 802.3ae standards. The hot-swappable SFP+ form factor enables easy installation and replacement without disrupting network operation. The simplex LC connector ensures compatibility with standard single-mode fiber connectors used in enterprise and metropolitan area network environments. Designed for seamless interoperability with Aruba hardware, this transceiver offers a cost-effective alternative to OEM modules without sacrificing quality or functionality. It is perfectly suited for backbone, campus, and data center fiber optic deployments requiring reliable, long-distance 10G connectivity.
