HP-J4858C

The HP-J4858C is a Gigabit SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) Transceiver Module designed for use with HP networking equipment. Here's a breakdown of its key features:

• Supports 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE): Enables high-speed data transmission of up to 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps) over short distances.
• Multimode Fiber Optic Cable (MMF): Connects to MMF cables using an LC connector, ideal for applications where data needs to travel within a building or campus environment.
• Short-Reach Distance: Operates effectively over distances typically up to 500 meters (1640 feet) using standard MMF (OM1 or OM2).
• HP Compatibility: Designed and guaranteed to work seamlessly with compatible HP networking devices like switches and routers. This ensures plug-and-play functionality and reliable performance within the HP ecosystem.

Applications:

• Upgrading network connections to Gigabit Ethernet speeds over fiber optic cables within data centers, enterprise wiring closets, or building networks.
• Expanding existing networks using fiber optic cabling for improved data transmission quality and security compared to copper cables.
• Connecting network devices located at moderate distances within a building or campus environment.

Important Notes:

• While the HP-J4858C supports up to 500 meters with standard MMF, the maximum reach can vary depending on the specific fiber optic cable quality. Higher quality MMF (like OM3 or OM4) might enable extended reach.
• For longer distances or single-mode fiber applications, a different SFP transceiver module would be required.

In summary, the HP-J4858C is a reliable and HP-approved solution for integrating Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over multimode fiber optic cables within short to moderate distances in your network.
