FAQ
What type of fiber does this transceiver support?
This Aruba S2P34A transceiver supports single-mode fiber (SMF) media. Single-mode fiber is designed for long-distance transmission with a small core diameter that allows light to travel in a single path, minimizing signal dispersion and enabling the 10-kilometer reach specification. It is compatible with standard LC duplex fiber patch cables commonly used in data center and enterprise environments.
What is the maximum data transfer rate?
The transceiver supports a maximum data transfer rate of 25 Gbit/s (25 Gigabits per second). This corresponds to the 25 Gigabit Ethernet standard and 25GBase-LR network technology. The 25GbE specification provides twice the bandwidth of 10GbE while maintaining similar power characteristics, making it an efficient upgrade path for existing network infrastructure.
What is the reach distance of this optical module?
This 25G LR SFP28 transceiver supports fiber links up to 10 kilometers (approximately 6.2 miles). The LR (Long Reach) designation indicates it is optimized for extended distance transmission over single-mode fiber. This reach capability makes it suitable for connecting geographically separated network segments without requiring signal regeneration equipment.
What networking equipment is this transceiver compatible with?
The S2P34A transceiver is specifically coded for Aruba C-Class networking platforms. It is designed for hot-pluggable installation in compatible Aruba switches and routers with SFP28 ports. While optimized for Aruba equipment, it may work in other vendors' SFP28 ports that accept third-party modules, though full functionality and management features are guaranteed only with supported Aruba hardware.
