Aruba compatible JM533A Description
EdgeOptic's JM533A compatible is an HPE Aruba-coded version of the EdgeOptic 25G-SFP28-100 multi-vendor SFP28 dual-rate 10G/25G SR transceiver. JM533A is HPE Aruba's ordering code for the EC-SFP28-25G-SR Multi Mode SFP28 module categorized by the HPE Store under Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Transceivers. The module is programmed with HPE Aruba-recognized EEPROM vendor and part-number strings so the EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateway reads the optic cleanly through the standard SFP28 management interface.
Optical behavior is 25GBASE-SR per IEEE 802.3by Clause 112 over duplex multi-mode fiber, with 10GBASE-SR support per IEEE 802.3ae on dual-rate SFP28 host ports. Line signaling rate is 10.3125 Gbps at 10GBASE-SR and 25.78125 Gbps at 25GBASE-SR. Reach is 100 m on OM4 and 70 m on OM3, all within the SFP28 SerDes envelope defined by SFP28 MSA SFF-8402.
Optical path is 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver, TX optical power −5 to +2.4 dBm, RX sensitivity better than −10.3 dBm, 5.3 dB link budget, LC duplex connector. Digital diagnostics are SFF-8472 Rev 12.0 compliant, exposing per-module temperature, supply voltage, TX bias, TX power and RX power through the gateway's standard transceiver-diagnostics interface. Power dissipation is 0.3 W, the module is hot-swappable, and the operating temperature range is 0 to 70°C commercial.
JM533A is positioned against HPE Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateway platforms with 25G SFP28 interfaces. The HPE Store URL paths for JM533A (HPE Store Italy and Netherlands) place the SKU under the Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Transceivers category, distinct from the JL- prefix range used by the ArubaOS-CX campus switching catalog. JL484A is the 25GBASE-SR SFP28 ordering code on the CX campus switch side and is the right SKU for engineers procuring 25G optics for Aruba CX campus switching chassis. Verify JM533A against HPE Aruba's EdgeConnect transceiver documentation for your specific gateway platform and SD-WAN software release before specifying the part.
On FEC, 25G FEC mode is configured at the MAC layer on each link partner and the optical path is agnostic to whether RS-FEC per IEEE 802.3by Clause 108 or BASE-R FEC is negotiated on the host. The EdgeConnect host FEC configuration determines the negotiated mode on the link; confirm the FEC profile on both link partners during commissioning to avoid mismatch on mixed-vendor 25G interconnects. The module is symmetrically compatible with either FEC mode supported on the host port.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the HPE Aruba JM533A for EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateways or for ArubaOS-CX campus switches?
JM533A (EC-SFP28-25G-SR) is categorized by the HPE Store under Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Transceivers, which positions it against HPE Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateway platforms rather than the ArubaOS-CX campus switching range. Engineers procuring a 25GBASE-SR SFP28 for Aruba CX campus switching chassis should look at JL484A instead, which is the matching ordering code on the CX campus switch catalog. JM533A and JL484A share identical optical specifications as 25GBASE-SR SFP28 modules operating to IEEE 802.3by Clause 112 but carry different EEPROM coding for their respective HPE Aruba platform ecosystems.
What is the difference between HPE Aruba JM533A and JL484A for 25GBASE-SR SFP28?
JM533A is the HPE Aruba ordering code for EC-SFP28-25G-SR on the EdgeConnect Enterprise side of the HPE Aruba portfolio. JL484A is the ordering code on the ArubaOS-CX campus switching side for the matching 25GBASE-SR SFP28 module. The two SKUs carry identical optical specifications (850 nm VCSEL, 100 m OM4, 70 m OM3, dual-rate 10G/25G per IEEE 802.3by Clause 112) but are programmed with different HPE Aruba-recognized EEPROM strings for their respective platform ecosystems. Match the SKU to your HPE Aruba quote or BOM: JM533A for EdgeConnect gateways, JL484A for CX campus switches.
