Aruba compatible JL749A Description
JL749A is Aruba's part number for a TAA-compliant 10GBASE-LR SFP+ transceiver. EdgeOptic's compatible replacement is built on our 10G-SFP-10 platform, matching the original optical and electrical specifications. TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance is a procurement requirement for US federal government agencies, Department of Defense contractors, and organizations operating under federal acquisition regulations.
JL749A carries the same 10GBASE-LR optical specifications as Aruba's standard J9151D but adds TAA certification, meaning the module is manufactured and assembled in a TAA-designated country. Government RFPs and GSA Schedule contracts that mandate TAA compliance reference JL749A as the line-item part number for 10G LR optics in Aruba network designs. The TAA designation affects the manufacturing supply chain documentation, not the optical or electrical performance. Organizations subject to DFARS (Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement) or CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) frameworks often require TAA-compliant components throughout their network infrastructure.
The transceiver operates at 1310 nm with a DFB laser transmitter and PIN photodiode receiver, conforming to IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-LR. Link reach is 10 km over G.652 single-mode fiber using duplex LC/UPC connectors. DDM per SFF-8472 provides optical power (Tx and Rx), temperature, bias current, and voltage telemetry accessible through AOS-CX CLI and SNMP. The SFP+ mechanical and electrical interface follows SFF-8431/8432 specifications.
JL749A is qualified for Aruba CX switches including the 6300, 6400, 8325, and 8360 series. In government campus and military base network designs, these modules typically populate 10G uplinks between access-layer CX 6300 switches and core CX 8360 or 8400 chassis. The 10 km LR reach supports inter-building fiber runs common in government campus deployments where buildings may be separated by significant distances. JL749A also qualifies for secure facility networks where TAA traceability is required for every active component in the signal path. Aruba Central Government Edition provides cloud-based management for these deployments, with DDM telemetry from JL749A modules feeding into the centralized monitoring dashboard.
Aruba's TAA optics portfolio includes JL781A (10GBASE-SR TAA), JL782A (1000BASE-SX TAA), and JL783A (1000BASE-LX TAA). JL749A specifically covers the 10GBASE-LR requirement. EdgeOptic's compatible is coded for Aruba AOS-CX platform recognition. For TAA-compliant volume orders or GSA Schedule pricing, contact our sales team
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the JL749A optically identical to the J9151D?
Yes. JL749A and J9151D share identical 10GBASE-LR specifications: 1310 nm, 10 km, same power budget, same DDM capability. The difference is TAA manufacturing certification on the JL749A, which is required for US government procurement under the Trade Agreements Act.
Which Aruba platforms accept the JL749A?
JL749A is qualified for AOS-CX platforms: CX 6300, CX 6400, CX 8325, and CX 8360. It is not listed for older ProVision-era switches (5400R, 2930F), which use J9151E or J9151D.
Does the JL749A TAA designation affect interoperability with non-TAA optics?
No. TAA is a manufacturing-origin certification, not an optical standard. A JL749A on one end of a link and a standard J9151D or third-party 10GBASE-LR on the other end will interoperate normally. The TAA designation is only relevant to the procurement compliance chain.
Do other Aruba TAA optics exist for different speeds?
Yes. Aruba's TAA lineup includes JL781A (10GBASE-SR), JL782A (1000BASE-SX), and JL783A (1000BASE-LX). JL749A covers the 10GBASE-LR requirement. Each TAA module mirrors the specs of its non-TAA equivalent.
