Product Information

Full details

This StarTech.com J9150A-ST module is for network administrators and IT professionals seeking reliable 10GbE connectivity for compatible HPE and MSA-compliant switches. Its key benefit is delivering high-speed Multi Mode Fiber (MMF) connections up to 300 meters with Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) for real-time status. A minor caveat is that it is specifically designed for 10GBASE-SR networks, limiting its use with other fiber types.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What type of fiber does this SFP+ module use?

This module uses Multi Mode Fiber (MMF) and is designed for 10GBASE-SR applications.

What is the maximum distance supported by this module?

The maximum transfer distance for this module is 300 meters (984 feet) over Multi Mode Fiber.

Does this module support Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM)?

Yes, the module features Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) which allows for real-time monitoring of transceiver status, including optical transmit/receive power, temperature, and voltage.

Is this module compatible with all SFP+ ports?

This module is compatible with SFP+ ports on HPE switches and routers that support the J9150A, and other MSA compliant switches. It's always recommended to verify compatibility with your specific network equipment model.

Can I install this module while the network switch is running?

Yes, this SFP+ module is hot-swappable, meaning you can install or remove it while the network switch is powered on without disrupting network operations.

What is the wavelength of this transceiver?

The transceiver operates at a wavelength of 850 nm.

What warranty does StarTech.com offer on this module?

StarTech.com provides a lifetime warranty on all their SFP and SFP+ transceiver modules.

Troubleshooting

Module not recognized by the switch

Ensure the module is fully seated in the SFP+ port. Try reseating the module. Verify that your switch firmware is up-to-date and that the switch is MSA compliant or specifically supports HPE J9150A. Test the module in a different port or compatible switch if possible.

No network link or intermittent connectivity

Check that the LC fiber optic cable is securely connected to both the module and the connected device. Inspect the fiber cable for damage. Verify that the fiber cable is Multi Mode Fiber (MMF). Check DDM readings for optical signal strength issues.

Slow data transfer speeds

Confirm that both ends of the link are configured for 10Gbps speed. Ensure that the connected devices and the network path support 10Gbps. Check for bottlenecks elsewhere in the network. Ensure the fiber cable is not damaged and is within the specified distance limit (300m).

DDM values are out of range

Check the fiber optic cable for damage or contamination. Ensure the cable is within the supported distance. If issues persist, the module may require replacement. Contact StarTech.com support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ensures 10GbE speeds for demanding network applications.

  • Not suitable for Single Mode Fiber (SMF) applications.
  • Specific compatibility must be verified with your switch model.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your network switch or router has an available SFP+ port.
  2. Gently insert the StarTech.com J9150A-ST module into the SFP+ port until it clicks into place. Do not force the module.
  3. Connect the Multi Mode Fiber optic cable with LC connectors to the module.
  4. Power on your network device. The module should be automatically detected.

Compatibility:

This module is designed to be compatible with HPE switches and routers that support the J9150A SFP+ module, as well as other MSA compliant network devices. Always verify compatibility with your specific switch model before installation. Refer to the list of compatible HPE series (1400, 1700, 1800, 2510, 2600) and general MSA compliance for broader use.

Care:

  • Handling: Handle the module by its edge connector and avoid touching the optical port or pins.
  • Storage: Store the module in a clean, dry environment. Keep the port covered with the protective cap when not in use to prevent dust contamination.
  • Cleaning: If the optical port appears dirty, use a specialized fiber optic cleaning tool or a lint-free wipe with appropriate cleaning solution. Never use abrasive materials.
