HPE 818138-001 is a 3-meter CXP-to-CXP active optical cable (AOC) designed for high-speed interconnects in enterprise data center environments. The cable features CXP connectors on both ends, supporting direct connections between compatible switches, routers, and line cards. CXP interfaces deliver up to 120 Gbps aggregate throughput, making this cable suitable for demanding fabric architectures and storage-area network deployments. The active optical design minimizes signal degradation over the 3-meter span, enabling reliable long-reach connections without additional signal conditioning.
This cable is compatible with HPE and third-party equipment supporting the CXP 120G standard, including select Altavolaist fabric modules and high-performance interconnect systems. Typical use cases include data center core switching, storage array backend connectivity, and supercomputer node interconnection. The refurbished unit has been tested and is guaranteed to meet OEM specifications. Available via quote from G5 Network Group.
