Aruba compatible J9153A Description

EdgeOptic's J9153A compatible is an HPE Aruba-coded version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-40 multi-vendor 10GBASE-ER SFP+ transceiver, built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links up to 40 km over duplex single-mode fiber. J9153A is the HPE ordering code for the HPE X132 10G SFP+ LC ER Transceiver, and the EEPROM is coded with the HPE Aruba vendor identifier so Aruba switches recognize the module.

The module operates at 1550 nm over duplex single-mode fiber with an LC/UPC connector. Transmit power is rated from −1 to +4 dBm, receiver sensitivity is better than −16 dBm, and receiver overload is 0 dBm, giving a 15 dB link budget for spans up to 40 km. The protocol scope on HPE Aruba campus switches is Ethernet only: 10 Gigabit Ethernet at 10.3125 Gbps and 1 Gigabit Ethernet at 1.25 Gbps. The module runs on a single 3.3 V supply across the 0 to 70 °C standard operating range.

Digital optical monitoring is supported per the SFF-8431 specification, reporting module temperature, supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit optical power and receive optical power in real time. These values let engineers confirm both ends of a link sit within spec during commissioning. The transceiver complies with the SFP MSA and SFF-8431 electrical interface, carries CE marking, meets RoHS requirements, and is rated IEC 60825-1 Class 1 for laser safety.

The receiver tolerates chromatic dispersion in the 800 to 1000 ps/nm range typical of a 40 km 1550 nm single-mode path, and the data path covers the 1.25 to 11.32 Gbps range that 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit Ethernet require. J9153A suits long-reach campus aggregation uplinks, building-to-building links and metro Ethernet handoffs where a 40 km single-mode span is needed. It works on HPE Aruba campus switches; verify the module against the HPE transceiver compatibility guide for your specific switch model and ArubaOS release before deployment.

Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms, every module ships after optical parameter measurement and EEPROM data validation. The J9153A compatible ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty. For deployment questions or a tailored quote, contact our sales team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a compatible J9153A transceiver work on HPE Aruba switches without the allow-unsupported-transceiver command?

HPE Aruba switches use EEPROM-based transceiver authentication, and a module without the expected vendor identifier fails that check. EdgeOptic codes the EEPROM with the HPE Aruba vendor identifier so the switch recognizes the module. The allow-unsupported-transceiver command is documented for certain Aruba switch models as a fallback for non-recognized optics. Confirm the transceiver status in the switch diagnostics and check the HPE transceiver compatibility guide for your specific switch model and ArubaOS release.

What is the difference between J9153A and J9153D?

J9153A is the original HPE X132 10GBASE-ER ordering code and J9153D is a later revision code in the same HPE X132 product line. EdgeOptic lists a compatible for each ordering code, so order the exact code your switch expects and confirm it against the HPE transceiver compatibility guide for your switch model.
