HPE 453151-B21 SFP Transceiver

Overview

The HPE 453151-B21 is a hot-pluggable SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceiver designed for 1Gbps network connections over multi-mode fiber. It utilizes 850nm wavelength optics to achieve data rates of 1000Base-SX, enabling network expansion up to 550 meters. This module is essential for extending network infrastructure in environments requiring fiber optic connectivity, such as connecting network switches or servers within a data center or campus network.

Compatibility

This transceiver is specifically designed for use with HPE BladeSystem c-Class Virtual Connect modules that support 1Gb SX SFP transceivers. It adheres to the IEEE 802.3Z 1000Base-SX standard, ensuring interoperability with other network equipment compliant with this specification. Verify compatibility with your specific Virtual Connect module's documentation.

Installation Notes

The 453151-B21 features a hot-pluggable design, allowing installation and removal without powering down the host system. It uses an LC Duplex connector for the fiber optic interface. For optimal performance and distance, use with 50/125µm multi-mode fiber (up to 550m) or 62.5/125µm multi-mode fiber (up to 300m).
