Overview
The HPE 720193-B21 is a QSFP+ to SFP+ adapter designed to enable the use of SFP+ transceivers in QSFP+ ports. This allows for flexible network configurations, particularly when integrating older or different speed networking equipment. It solves the problem of port mismatch by providing a direct physical and electrical conversion, ensuring signal integrity for data transmission in enterprise environments. This adapter is essential for maximizing the utility of existing network hardware and facilitating upgrades without complete system replacement.
Compatibility
This adapter is designed for use with HPE BladeSystem c-Class enclosures and servers that feature QSFP+ ports. It supports the insertion of standard SFP+ transceivers, allowing them to operate within a QSFP+ interface. Specific compatibility extends to any HPE BladeSystem c-Class component requiring QSFP+ connectivity where an SFP+ module needs to be utilized.
Installation Notes
The adapter requires careful insertion into the QSFP+ port to avoid damaging the contacts. Ensure the SFP+ module is fully seated within the adapter before installing the combined unit into the QSFP+ port. Handle with care to prevent electrostatic discharge.
