Know before you buy
This module is designed to be fully compatible with HP switches that specifically support the X2 form factor. Please verify your switch's documentation to ensure it supports X2 transceivers before installation.
This transceiver is designed for use with Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF). It utilizes a Duplex SC connector, so you will need a corresponding SC-to-SC multi-mode patch cable.
The LightWave 10GBASE-SR X2 transceiver supports a maximum transmission distance of 300 meters, or approximately 984 feet, over multi-mode fiber.
Digital Diagnostics Monitoring allows you to monitor real-time parameters of the transceiver, such as optical output power, input power, and temperature. This helps network administrators proactively identify potential connection issues or hardware degradation.
This module is rated for an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. It is suitable for standard data center or office environments, but it is not intended for extreme outdoor or industrial temperature conditions.
