HP compatible AJ716B Description

EdgeOptic's AJ716B compatible is an HPE-coded 8G Fibre Channel short-wave version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-300 multi-vendor SFP+ transceiver. The HPE EEPROM identifies the optic as a recognized B-series accessory on HPE StoreFabric SAN switches, so the switch port accepts the module without a vendor-mismatch warning. One universal multimode SFP+ hardware platform, 80+ vendor codes, including this HPE B-series Fibre Channel variant.

Optical specifications, 8GFC short-wave class per FC-PI-4. 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver, multi-mode duplex LC. Tri-rate Fibre Channel operation at 2.125, 4.25, and 8.5 Gbps for 2GFC, 4GFC, and 8GFC links. Reach on 8GFC is 150 m on OM3 per the FC-PI-4 short-wave grid; 2GFC and 4GFC links reach further on the same fiber per their respective FC physical-interface grids. DDM/DOM is supported for live link diagnostics. Compliance: SFF-8431, SFP MSA, RoHS, IEC60825-1 Class 1 laser safety. Operating range 0 to 70°C commercial.

AJ716B is HPE's part number for the 8 Gb short-wave Fibre Channel SFP+ accessory shipped with HPE B-series StoreFabric SAN switches. The HPE B-series line is the HPE-branded Brocade Fibre Channel SAN portfolio, and the AJ716B EEPROM is coded for B-series fabric recognition. EdgeOptic's compatible carries the same B-series coding so the optic presents as a recognized HPE accessory at port-up. Verify the exact StoreFabric switch model and Fabric OS release against HPE's B-series transceiver compatibility documentation before deployment, since the supported-transceiver list is maintained per fabric generation.

AJ716B is the standard short-wave 8GFC optic for HPE B-series SAN fabrics terminating server, storage, and ISL links over OM3/OM4 multimode within the FC-PI-4 reach grid. On 16GFC or 32GFC fabric ports, a higher-rate Fibre Channel SFP+ is required, and longer-reach single-mode 8GFC deployments use a separate long-wave HPE B-series part number. Order the short-wave AJ716B for OM3/OM4 multimode 8GFC SAN links, and verify the target switch model accepts the AJ716B part number on the supported-transceiver list.

Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty included.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is AJ716B coded for HPE B-series StoreFabric SAN switches or only legacy HP Brocade fabrics?

B-series. AJ716B was originally introduced as an HP B-series 8 Gb short-wave Fibre Channel SFP+ accessory, and the same B-series EEPROM coding applies under current HPE StoreFabric branding. EdgeOptic codes our AJ716B compatible to present as an HPE B-series accessory, so the optic registers cleanly on the Fabric OS supported-transceiver list. Verify the specific StoreFabric switch model and Fabric OS release against HPE's B-series transceiver documentation before deployment, since the supported-transceiver list is maintained per fabric generation.
