Why choose it

This transceiver is an ideal choice for upgrading existing multimode fiber plants to 10 Gigabit Ethernet without the cost of installing new single-mode cabling. Its 1310nm wavelength and LRM technology overcome modal dispersion limitations, allowing longer reach on legacy OM1, OM2, and OM3 fibers. The integrated DDM provides real-time monitoring of temperature, voltage, laser bias current, and optical power, simplifying network management and troubleshooting.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting switches and routers in enterprise campus backbones over existing multimode fiber.
• Extending 10GbE links between buildings or floors up to 220 meters.
• Upgrading legacy 1GbE multimode links to 10GbE without recabling.
• Deploying in HP networking environments requiring J9152A-compatible optics.

Good to know

The StarTech J9152A-ST is hot-swappable, allowing installation or removal without powering down the network device. It complies with IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-LRM standards and MSA specifications, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of HP and other compatible equipment. The metal housing provides durability and efficient heat dissipation, contributing to reliable long-term operation.
