HPE Aruba JL308A Compatible 40G QSFP+ SR Transceiver Module

The JL308A compatible module is intended for HPE Aruba platforms requiring a 40G QSFP+ transceiver. It specifies wavelength 850/880/910/940nm, reach 300m on OM3 / 400m on OM4 / 500m on OM5 with Duplex LC/UPC through MMF.

OEM Part Number: JL308AHT Part Number: QSFP-BIDI-40G

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to HPE Aruba JL308A
• 40G connectivity at 41.2Gbps (4x 10.3125Gbps)
• Optical wavelength: 850/880/910/940nm
• Specified reach: 300m on OM3 / 400m on OM4 / 500m on OM5
• Duplex LC/UPC / MMF interface
• Digital diagnostic monitoring: Supported
• Operating temperature: 0 to 70°C (32 to 158°F)

Typical deployments include switch-to-switch, switch-to-server and aggregation links inside a data hall or between adjacent equipment rooms. The Duplex LC/UPC interface connects to the specified multimode cabling, and the stated reach depends on fiber grade and link loss. Keep this interface on the matching multimode optical standard rather than connecting it directly to a single-mode wavelength or reach variant.

Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 40G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a QSFP+ housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.

The module is programmed for equipment that recognizes the JL308A part number. Before shipment, we check EEPROM identification, link establishment and diagnostic readouts, then verify transmit and receiver performance against the stated optical specifications. Host hardware and software revisions can affect third-party module acceptance, so customers can provide the switch model and software release for a compatibility check before ordering.

Quote HT part number QSFP-BIDI-40G together with OEM part number JL308A and the required quantity. Standard modules use our factory label; neutral labels, customer-branded packaging and project-specific compatibility coding are available on request. For mixed-brand installations, select the corresponding brand-specific page instead of assuming one EEPROM version fits every platform.

Each unit undergoes optical performance checks, compatibility verification and visual inspection before packing. Modules are supplied in protective blister trays or anti-static packaging and then cartoned for transport. Custom labels and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.

Standard products normally ship within one to three working days. Worldwide courier, air freight and sea freight options are available, and shipments can also be sent on your own courier account or delivered to an appointed forwarder.
