Description

The JL486A-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Aruba JL486A. This SFP28 transceiver provides plug-and-play 25GBASE-LR connectivity in Aruba CX switches with SFP28 ports. - 25GBASE-LR standard compliance ensures interoperability with any standards-compliant 25G SFP28 port - SFP28 form factor delivering 25.78 Gbps over single-mode fibre using 1310nm wavelength - Up to 10km reach on OS1/OS2 single-mode fibre via duplex LC connector - Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DOM) support for real-time optical parameter visibility - Hot-swappable for zero-downtime installation in commercial temperature range (0 to 70°C) - DFB laser transmitter and PIN photodiode receiver with 8 dB optical budget

Features

• IEEE 802.3by 25GBASE-LR compliance guarantees interoperability with any standards-compliant 25G Ethernet infrastructure, regardless of switch vendor
• 1310nm DFB laser transmitter paired with PIN photodiode receiver delivers 8 dB minimum optical budget, sufficient for 10km links over OS1 or OS2 single-mode fibre
• SFP28 MSA form factor supports both native 25G operation and backward compatibility with 10G SFP+ infrastructure at reduced data rates where supported by host
• Digital Diagnostic Monitoring via SFF-8472 provides real-time access to optical power levels, temperature, voltage, and bias current for proactive link management
• Hot-swappable design allows field installation and replacement without powering down the switch or disrupting adjacent ports
• Commercial temperature rating (0 to 70°C) suits standard data centre and campus aggregation environments without requiring extended-range components

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Aruba JL486A?
A: Yes. The JL486A-BCC is a drop-in replacement based on the same 25GBASE-LR standard, SFP28 form factor, and 25.78 Gbps data rate as the original. It is plug-and-play compatible with Aruba switches that support the JL486A transceiver.

Q: Which Aruba switch platforms support this transceiver?
A: This transceiver is compatible with Aruba CX switches that feature SFP28 ports, including the CX 8325 and CX 8360 series. Any Aruba platform with standards-compliant 25G SFP28 ports will support this module.

Q: What fibre type and grade is required to achieve 10km reach?
A: Single-mode fibre (SMF) rated OS1 or OS2 is required. The transceiver provides an 8 dB optical budget, which typically supports 10km over clean, low-loss OS2 fibre. Actual reach depends on fibre attenuation, splice loss, and connector quality.

Q: Can I access DOM data from the switch CLI or management interface?
A: Yes. This transceiver supports Digital Diagnostic Monitoring per SFF-8472. You can query real-time optical transmit and receive power, temperature, supply voltage, and laser bias current via CLI or SNMP on any DOM-capable Aruba switch.

Q: Does this transceiver support Forward Error Correction (FEC)?
A: The transceiver hardware supports FEC (specifically RS-FEC per IEEE 802.3by), but FEC enablement is controlled by the host switch port configuration. Consult your Aruba switch documentation for FEC configuration commands if required by your network design.
