HPE JW087A – 1 Gb SFP Transceiver Module (1000BASE-LX Single-Mode)
Overview
The HPE JW087A is a 1-gigabit small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver module designed for enterprise network uplinks and fibre backbone links. It supports the 1000BASE-LX standard, uses a 1310 nm wavelength over single-mode fibre (SMF), and is rated for distances up to approximately 10 km in typical installations. It fits in standard SFP ports in HPE/Aruba switches and mobility controllers and enables long-reach fibre links between wiring closets, buildings or campus segments. In deployment you might use one JW087A module per end of a fibre run linking two campus buildings, providing a clean gigabit uplink without the complexity of higher-speed modules.
Key Features
