AE021AU HP Storageworks XP12000/10000 Upgrade 8 Port 4GB Fibre Channel Chip

AE021AU HP Storageworks XP12000/10000 Upgrade 8 Port 4GB Fibre Channel Chip

HPE-branded SFP / SFP+ / SFP28 / QSFP+ / QSFP28 transceiver — fiber or DAC copper optic for HPE server NICs and switches.

Specifications

• Part Number: AE021AU
• Brand: HPE
• Form Factor: SFP (1G) / SFP+ (10G) / SFP28 (25G) / QSFP+ (40G) / QSFP28 (100G) / QSFP-DD (200G/400G) — see PN
• Optic Class: SFP / SFP+
• Speed: 1G / 10G / 25G / 40G / 100G — see PN
• Wavelength: 850nm (SR/MMF) / 1310nm (LR/SMF) / 1550nm (ER/SMF) / coded by class
• Connector: LC duplex (most) / MPO (parallel-fiber QSFP) / RJ45 (BASE-T variants 1G)

Compatibility

HPE transceivers are firmware-keyed — third-party SFPs may work but typically trigger 'unsupported transceiver' warnings. For production use, deploy vendor-original.

• HPE NICs / Smart Array iSCSI: ProLiant Gen8+ NICs with SFP cage
• HPE / Aruba ProCurve switches: 2530/2920/5400R/8400 + Aruba CX 6300/8325/8400 with SFP cages
• HPE StoreFabric (B-series Brocade) / SN-series FC: 16G/32G/64G FC SAN switches

Use Cases

Server NIC ports + ToR switch uplinks + SAN HBA ports. SR/MMF for in-rack and short-rack connections (cheaper). LR/SMF for cross-datacenter / cross-MDF runs. DAC copper for in-rack direct attach (lowest latency, lowest cost, no transceiver pair needed). AOC for medium-range (5-30m) where DAC max length insufficient.
