HP compatible JL737A Description

EdgeOptic's JL737A compatible is an HPE-coded Tx1270/Rx1330 version of the EdgeOptic BIDI-10G-SFP-20A multi-vendor 10G BiDi SFP+ transceiver. The HPE product name is the X130 10G SFP+ LC BiDi 10km-Uplink Transceiver. The module carries HPE-recognized identification data, so HPE Aruba switches with 10G SFP+ ports read it as a matching X130 BiDi part. The Uplink designation marks the A-side of a bidirectional pair, transmitting at 1270 nm and receiving at 1330 nm over a single strand of single-mode fiber.

HPE rates the original JL737A for up to 10 km. The EdgeOptic compatible is built on the BIDI-10G-SFP-20A platform with a 9 dB link budget rated for spans up to 20 km, which makes it a direct drop-in for any 10 km HPE Aruba deployment. The extra budget covers connector loss, splice loss, and fiber aging on the link. RX overload of +4 dBm exceeds 0 dBm maximum transmit power, so a short fiber run between two of these modules will not saturate the receiver.

The JL737A pairs with a Downlink B-side at the remote end: transmit at 1330 nm, receive at 1270 nm. The HPE match is the JL738A X130 Downlink. Both endpoints must carry opposite wavelength directions for the link to come up. The optical interface uses a DFB laser transmitter and a PIN photodiode receiver. Transmit power runs from −5 dBm to 0 dBm, receiver sensitivity is better than −14.5 dBm. The module uses a single LC/UPC connector, runs on a +3.3 V supply across a 0 to 70 C operating range, and supports digital optical monitoring per SFF-8472. Build compliance follows the SFP MSA and SFF-8431.

The module handles 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet traffic across HPE Aruba switches with 10G SFP+ ports. For deployment on a specific switch model, verify the part against the HPE transceiver compatibility documentation for that chassis, or contact our sales team.

Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms, the JL737A compatible ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 20 km EdgeOptic platform give a JL737A 10 km deployment?

Headroom. HPE rates the JL737A X130 Uplink for 10 km. The EdgeOptic compatible carries a 9 dB link budget rated for spans up to 20 km, so the same 10 km HPE link has additional margin for connector loss, splice loss, and fiber aging over the lifetime of the deployment. RX overload tolerance of +4 dBm sits above the 0 dBm maximum transmit power, so a short fiber loop between two of these modules will not saturate the receiver. The part is a valid drop-in replacement for any 10 km JL737A application.
