Fiber optic transceiver module HPE S2P34A SFP28 10 m 13x13x58 mm

The HPE S2P34A SFP28 fiber optic transceiver module is a compact networking component designed for short-reach, high-speed interconnects. With support for 25 Gigabit link rates and a maximum transfer distance of 10 meters, this SFP28 form-factor transceiver fits into compatible network switches, servers, and direct-attach fiber setups. Its small dimensions (13x13x58 mm) and lightweight construction make it easy to install in dense rack environments and modular ports where space is limited.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers reliable 25 Gbps connectivity for low-latency links and backplane extensions. Its short-reach fiber design minimizes signal loss over multimode cabling for distances up to 10 meters. The standardized SFP28 form factor ensures broad compatibility with equipment that accepts SFP28 modules while occupying minimal port space. Low weight and compact size simplify handling and installation during network upgrades or equipment replacements.

Suitable for

• Short-reach server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections in data centers
• High-density rack deployments requiring compact SFP28 modules
• Direct-attach fiber links using multimode fiber for distances up to 10 meters
• Network equipment ports that accept SFP28 modules for 25 Gbps links

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP28
• Maximum transfer distance: 10 m
• Supported data rate: 25 Gbps (SFP28 standard)
• Physical dimensions: 13 x 13 x 58 mm
• Weight: 0.0218 kg
• Connector type: fiber optic (compatible with short-reach multimode fiber)

How to use

Insert the SFP28 transceiver firmly into a compatible module slot on the network switch or server until it latches. Connect the appropriate multimode fiber cable to the transceiver connector, ensuring proper polarity and secure connections. After physical installation, verify link status and negotiate the correct 25 Gbps speed in the device management interface. Follow standard hot-plug precautions if inserting or removing the module while equipment is powered.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use multimode fiber patch cables rated for short-reach 25 Gbps links and keep fiber connectors clean and free of dust. Confirm compatibility with the host equipment’s transceiver compatibility list and observe manufacturer guidelines for insertion/removal and electrostatic discharge precautions.
