HPE Aruba 200G FR4 QSFP56 – QSFP56 FR4 Optical Transceiver

About HPE Aruba 200G FR4 QSFP56 Optical Transceiver in Bangladesh

The HPE Aruba 200G FR4 QSFP56 is a high-speed 200Gbps optical transceiver designed for modern data center and enterprise networking environments. The official HPE product reference is R5Z84A, identified by HPE as the HPE 200Gb QSFP56 LC CWDM4 FR4 Transceiver.

Using the compact QSFP56 form factor and CWDM4 FR4 optical architecture, the transceiver provides an aggregate 200Gbps Ethernet connection using four optical channels. The four channels operate in the 1310nm-class CWDM wavelength range and use PAM4 signaling for high-speed optical transmission.

The HPE Aruba 200G FR4 uses single-mode fiber and a duplex LC optical connector, making it suitable for longer-reach 200GbE connectivity than multimode SR4 solutions. Its duplex LC interface also makes it convenient for integration with existing single-mode fiber infrastructure.

HPE Aruba 200G FR4 QSFP56 Optical Transceiver Specifications & Overview

Overview

The HPE Aruba 200G FR4 QSFP56 optical transceiver provides 200Gbps Ethernet connectivity through a compact QSFP56 interface. It is designed for network environments requiring high bandwidth over single-mode fiber while using a conventional duplex LC fiber connection.

The FR4 architecture uses four optical channels, each carrying approximately 50Gbps using PAM4 modulation. CWDM wavelength multiplexing combines the four optical channels onto a duplex single-mode fiber link, enabling high-speed 200GbE connectivity without requiring a parallel MPO fiber interface.

Compared with 200G SR4 optics, which use 850nm multimode fiber and MPO connectors for short-reach links, the 200G FR4 architecture uses 1310nm-class CWDM optics and single-mode fiber with duplex LC connectivity. This makes FR4 particularly suitable for longer data center links and installations where single-mode fiber infrastructure is already available.

The HPE R5Z84A is identified by HPE as a 200Gb QSFP56 LC CWDM4 FR4 transceiver. Compatibility should be checked against the exact HPE Aruba or HPE Networking platform, software version, supported optics list, and port configuration before deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the data rate of the HPE Aruba 200G FR4?
The HPE R5Z84A provides 200Gbps Ethernet connectivity.

Q2: What is the official HPE product number?
The official product number is R5Z84A, listed by HPE as the HPE 200Gb QSFP56 LC CWDM4 FR4 Transceiver.

Q3: What does FR4 mean?
FR4 refers to a four-channel optical architecture using wavelength-multiplexed optical signals. A 200G FR4 implementation uses four approximately 50Gbps PAM4 channels.

Q4: What type of fiber does the HPE Aruba 200G FR4 use?
The FR4 architecture is designed for single-mode fiber.

Q5: What wavelength does the 200G FR4 use?
The transceiver uses four CWDM channels in the 1310nm-class optical band.

Q6: What connector does the HPE Aruba 200G FR4 use?
The R5Z84A uses a duplex LC optical connector.

Q7: What is the difference between 200G SR4 and 200G FR4?
200G SR4 uses 850nm multimode optics and an MPO interface for short-reach links, while 200G FR4 uses 1310nm-class CWDM optics over single-mode fiber with duplex LC connectivity for longer-reach applications.

Q8: Is the HPE Aruba 200G FR4 suitable for data center interconnects?
Yes. Its single-mode fiber architecture and FR4 wavelength multiplexing make it suitable for high-bandwidth data center and enterprise network links.

Q9: Can the R5Z84A be installed in any QSFP56 port?
No. The host platform must support the specific 200G FR4 optical standard, transceiver coding, power requirements, firmware, and vendor compatibility.
