Description

JL485A HPE Aruba Compatible 25G SFP28 Module | 10/25GBASE-CSR 850nm 300m LC Multimode DDM | HYTOPTODEVICE

Product Overview

This HYTOPTODEVICE JL485A compatible 25G SFP28 Module is a direct replacement for HPE Aruba official modules. It complies with IEEE 25GBASE-eSR and SFP28 MSA industry standards.

Adopting 850nm industrial VCSEL laser and duplex LC/UPC interface, the module delivers stable 25.78Gbps full-duplex speed. It supports up to 300m transmission on OM4 multimode fiber and 200m on OM3 fiber with RS-FEC enabled.

The module features low power consumption (≤1.0W) and high-density design. It supports full DDM/DOM real-time monitoring for temperature, optical power and working voltage.

Pre-flashed with official ArubaOS-CX validated firmware, it achieves zero-alarm plug-and-play. It fits Aruba CX data center and campus switches, server HBAs and storage devices.

Usage Guidelines & Best Practices

Standardized installation, maintenance and operation procedures are critical to extending the service life of JL485A 25G SFP28 Module and ensuring long-term stable low-latency transmission. All operation specifications comply with SFP28 MSA and ArubaOS-CX equipment maintenance standards, effectively avoiding link packet loss, flapping, optical attenuation overload and module hardware damage in data center and campus network scenarios.

1. Anti-Static Handling Protection

The transceiver’s laser diode and PCB circuits are highly sensitive to static electricity. Always wear a certified ESD anti-static wrist strap during installation, replacement and maintenance work inside Arista switch racks to prevent static discharge damage to internal hardware and preserve complete dual-rate module performance.

2. Optical Port & Fiber Cleaning Maintenance

Dust, oil stains and oxidation on fiber end faces and module LC ports are the main causes of increased optical loss and link instability. Keep the original dust protective caps covered on module optical ports during storage, idle standby and equipment shelving. Before cable docking, use professional fiber cleaning tools to thoroughly clean the duplex LC fiber end faces. Regularly inspect and clean active links in long-term operating equipment to avoid signal attenuation and packet loss caused by port contamination.

3. Standard RS-FEC Port Configuration

Enable RS-FEC forward error correction on Arista leaf-spine switch and server HBA ports to unlock the module’s full 25G rated transmission distance. FEC is not required for 10G mode operation; with RS-FEC activated, the transceiver stably reaches 200m on OM3 fiber and 300m on OM4 fiber to guarantee sufficient link margin for long-distance legacy structured cabling.

4.Professional Fiber Grade Matching Rules

This JL485A 25G SFP28 eSR module is specially designed for high-bandwidth multimode fiber transmission. It only supports OM3, OM4 and OM5 high-performance multimode fiber cables. Legacy low-bandwidth OM1/OM2 multimode fiber and single-mode fiber cannot meet 25G high-speed transmission bandwidth requirements, which will cause severe signal attenuation, link flapping and frequent disconnection. In addition, APC polished fiber cables are not applicable, only standard LC/UPC duplex multimode cables are supported.

5. Standard Hot-Swap Operation Rules

The module supports MSA-standard hot-swap plug-and-play for online network maintenance without powering off Arista switches. Avoid frequent repeated insertion and removal within a short time window, which causes mechanical abrasion to gold pins and host switch SFP28 ports, shortening overall service life in high-density leaf-spine racks.

6. Professional Laser Safety Specification

This product belongs to Class 1 eye-safe laser equipment, meeting international laser safety standards. However, to avoid accidental eye damage during equipment debugging and maintenance, do not stare directly at the powered module optical port and exposed fiber end face for a long time. Place idle modules in a dry and dust-proof storage environment, avoiding high temperature, humidity and strong electromagnetic interference environments to ensure stable product performance.
