Dual-protocol 16Gb FC and 10GbE transceiver

The HPE StoreFabric H6Z42A is a hot-pluggable SFP+ module built for data-centre optical networks. It carries both 16 Gbit/s Fibre Channel and 10 Gigabit Ethernet traffic over a single LC duplex port, simplifying cabling in mixed-protocol environments.

100-metre reach on 50/125 µm multi-mode fibre

The transceiver is rated for 100 m using 50/125 µm multi-mode cable and 10GBase-SR signalling. Beyond that distance or on single-mode fibre the link will not operate, so the module suits rack-to-rack or row-to-row runs inside a single room.

Works only with HPE StoreFabric switches

Compatibility is limited to HPE StoreFabric switch platforms; the transceiver will not function in third-party or non-StoreFabric HPE hardware. Verify the switch model against the HPE compatibility matrix before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will this H6Z42A transceiver work in my existing HP StoreFabric switch alongside older 8Gb Fibre Channel modules?

The H6Z42A is compatible with HP StoreFabric switches and supports both 16Gb Fibre Channel and 10GbE protocols on a single port, allowing mixed-speed environments.

How can I verify the 10GBase-SR link is operating correctly after installing the transceiver?

Check the switch port status for a valid 10GBase-SR connection, confirm the LC duplex cable shows light on both strands, and monitor for zero CRC errors on the interface counters.

Does the H6Z42A ship with the required LC duplex 50/125 µm multi-mode patch cable or must I order it separately?

The transceiver includes only the hot-pluggable SFP+ module itself; a 50/125 µm LC duplex multi-mode fiber cable for the 100m SR reach must be purchased separately.
