HP 180-200040 8Gbps SFP Transceiver 300m 850nm Multi-mode LC

SKU CH-K1X4-BK6W7 MPN 180-200040

8 Gbps SFP transceiver covers 300 m over multi-mode fibre at 850 nm using an LC connector

  • Device TypeTransceiver
  • 8 Gbps data rate supports high-speed fibre links
  • 300 m reach on 850 nm multi-mode fibre
  • LC duplex connector ensures secure patch-panel fit
  • SFP form factor allows hot-swap in compatible switches
  • New condition guarantees factory-fresh performance

8Gbps Multi-mode SFP Transceiver

The HP 180-200040 is an 8Gbps SFP transceiver module designed for short-range fibre links. It operates at an 850nm wavelength over multi-mode fibre with an LC duplex connector. The module supports link distances up to 300 metres. It provides a hot-pluggable interface for compatible network switches and storage equipment.

Suitable for 300m data-centre links

This transceiver suits administrators extending 8Gbps Fibre Channel or Gigabit Ethernet connections within a rack or between adjacent racks. It is not intended for single-mode fibre infrastructure. Buyers needing longer reach beyond 300 metres or a different connector type should look at other modules.

850nm wavelength and 300m reach

The 850nm multi-mode specification determines compatibility with existing patch cables and patch panels. Verify that the host equipment supports this wavelength and distance rating before purchase. Mismatched optics will prevent the link from establishing.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 8Gbps SFP transceiver draw when running continuously?

The module operates within standard SFP power limits for 8Gbps multi-mode links, typically below 1 W during continuous use.

What cabling and switch ports are needed to use the LC multi-mode transceiver?

You need OM2 or OM3 duplex multi-mode patch cables with LC connectors and a free SFP slot that supports 8Gbps Fibre Channel or 8Gbps Ethernet.

Will the 850nm 300m transceiver link reliably with older 4Gbps or 2Gbps SFP ports?

It is designed for 8Gbps operation; compatibility with slower SFP ports depends on the host equipment's multi-rate support, which varies by vendor.
