About This Part
The Part Number 720998-001 designates an HP SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) transceiver, engineered for high-performance Fibre Channel connectivity. This module operates at an 8Gbps data rate, adhering to the Fibre Channel protocol for robust storage area network (SAN) applications. Utilizing an 850nm wavelength, it is optimized for short-reach multimode fiber optic cables, typically supporting distances up to 300 meters. Its SFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of network equipment, including the HP MSA 2040 storage arrays, providing a reliable and high-bandwidth interface for critical data transfer operations within enterprise environments. This transceiver is MSA-compliant, ensuring interoperability and ease of integration into existing infrastructure. This HP transceiver is primarily deployed within data centre environments, integrating seamlessly into Fibre Channel switches, host bus adapters (HBAs), and storage arrays to facilitate high-speed, low-latency data access. It is crucial for enterprises, cloud service providers, and telecommunications operators requiring robust SAN connectivity to support virtualized servers, database applications, and intensive data processing workloads. The 720998-001 solves the challenge of data bottlenecks, ensuring efficient and reliable communication between servers and shared storage resources. It serves as an essential component for upgrading existing 4Gb or 2Gb Fibre Channel infrastructures, enabling organizations to meet increasing demands for bandwidth and performance without a complete overhaul of their core network.
