HP compatible 721000-001 Description

721000-001 is HPE's spare part number for the MSA 10Gb Short Wave iSCSI SFP+ transceiver qualified for the MSA 1040 and MSA 2040 storage array families. A related part number, 721000-002, appears in HPE documentation as a internal HPE catalog variant with identical optical and electrical specifications of the same module; both reference identical hardware. EdgeOptic's compatible is manufactured on the 10G-SFP-300 platform and programmed with HPE-recognized EEPROM, so the MSA controller firmware accepts it without generating transceiver mismatch alerts in the management interface. The 10G-SFP-300 platform uses the same optical and electrical components as the original HPE module and supports the same range of applications.

The MSA 1040/2040 arrays use iSCSI 10GbE host ports for block-level storage traffic over multimode fiber. The 721000-001 provides the short-range link for these ports, typically connecting the array to a top-of-rack or aggregation switch within the same rack or adjacent racks in the data center. The dual-fiber multimode design handles typical intra-rack and short cross-connect distances. For newer MSA 2050/2052/2060 deployments, HPE introduced the 876144-001 with updated firmware qualification targeting those array generations. If replacing modules in a mixed MSA environment, matching the part number to the array generation prevents management console warnings.

Optical specifications: 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver, 6.1 dB minimum link budget per IEEE 802.3ae. Reach is 300 m on OM3, 400 m on OM4 multimode fiber. Distance values are calculated from the minimum guaranteed optical budget and typical cable attenuation; actual reach depends on patch cord quality, splice count, and connector condition. LC/UPC duplex connector, SFF-8431/8432 mechanical and electrical compliance. Rate range is 1.25 to 10.3125 Gbps, covering 10G Ethernet (10.3125 Gbps), Gigabit Ethernet (1.25 Gbps), and STM-64 (9.953 Gbps). Application support depends on the MSA controller port type and firmware version. DDM telemetry is accessible through the MSA management interface and reports Tx/Rx optical power, module temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage. Commercial operating temperature: 0 to 70 °C. CE/RoHS certified.

The module meets SFP+ MSA compliance per the SFF-8432 standard and carries product safety certification. EdgeOptic verifies EEPROM programming against MSA 1040/2040 controller firmware and inspects optical output and connector quality on every unit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the 721000-001 and 721000-002?

Both are HPE MSA 10Gb Short Wave iSCSI SFP+ transceivers with the same optical and electrical specifications. The -001 and -002 suffixes indicate different HPE regional or packaging variants. EdgeOptic's compatible module covers both part numbers with a single EEPROM configuration.

Should I use the 721000-001 or 876144-001 for my MSA array?

Match the part number to your MSA generation. The 721000-001 is qualified for MSA 1040 and MSA 2040. The 876144-001 targets MSA 2050, MSA 2052, and MSA 2060. Both modules are optically identical 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceivers, but the MSA controller firmware checks the vendor code in EEPROM, so using the generation-matched SKU avoids management console warnings.
