Product Description

The HP B-series 4x32Gb QSFP transceiver is designed for high-speed data transmission over short distances. It is often found in data centers where fast and reliable connectivity between switches or servers is essential. Network engineers and IT professionals typically use these transceivers to upgrade or maintain high-performance networking environments.

Key Features

  • Delivers 128Gbps aggregate bandwidth through 4 lanes of 32Gbps
  • Short wave optics optimized for up to 100 meters on multimode fiber
  • Plug-and-play design ensures easy installation in compatible HP equipment
  • Low power consumption helps maintain efficient operation
  • Supports error detection and correction to maintain data integrity

These transceivers are commonly deployed in enterprise data centers and high-performance computing clusters. They enable fast interconnects for servers and storage, helping maintain smooth data flow without bottlenecks. By using short wave optics, they keep transmission stable over typical rack-to-rack distances.


Use Cases

The Q2R28A HPE 4x32Gb QSFP Short Wave Transceiver is primarily deployed in high-density data center environments and enterprise network cores requiring rapid, short-range optical connectivity. IT administrators managing virtualized workloads or storage clusters benefit from its ability to consolidate multiple high-speed channels into a single compact module, optimizing port and cable management.

How It's Used:

  • Connecting top-of-rack switches in hyperscale data centers to support high-throughput compute and storage traffic.
  • Enabling fast interconnects between blade server chassis in virtualization-heavy enterprise IT settings.
  • Establishing low-latency links in storage area networks (SANs) to maintain efficient data replication and backup workflows.
  • Facilitating aggregation of 128Gbps bandwidth in campus core switches for large-scale business networks.
  • Supporting edge computing clusters where compact, high-speed connectivity over short distances is critical.

This transceiver enhances operational efficiency by delivering scalable bandwidth aggregation in a space-saving form factor, enabling organizations to maintain high-performance network infrastructures without extensive cabling complexity or port saturation.
