HPE Data Storage S0K91A HPE MSA 25Gb SFP28 Short Range 4-pack iSCSI Transceiver

The S0K91A represents the cutting edge of high-speed Ethernet connectivity for the HPE MSA Gen6 (2060/2062) storage family. Designed to bridge the gap between traditional 10Gb networks and ultra-high-performance data centers, this 4-pack SFP28 transceiver kit enables 25Gb iSCSI throughput over short-range multi-mode fiber. It is the definitive choice for modern enterprises looking to supercharge their IP-based storage networks, providing the necessary bandwidth to support dense virtualization, high-speed backup windows, and real-time data analytics without the complexity of Fibre Channel.

• 2.5x Bandwidth Increase: Moving from 10Gb to 25Gb provides a massive leap in data throughput, effectively eliminating network-level congestion for high-demand storage tasks.

• SFP28 Signal Integrity: Built on the SFP28 standard, these modules offer superior signal-to-noise ratios, ensuring stable and reliable data transmission across the storage fabric.

• Optimized for iSCSI Efficiency: Fine-tuned to handle the unique packet structures of iSCSI traffic, reducing CPU overhead on the host and improving overall system response times.

• Low Latency Architecture: The short-range optical design ensures minimal signal delay, which is critical for maintaining the high-IOPS performance of MSA flash-tier storage.

• Network Future-Proofing: Upgrading to 25Gb iSCSI provides the bandwidth headroom needed for the next generation of server and application growth without a full infrastructure overhaul.

• Cost-Effective Performance: Leverage your existing Ethernet/IP management skills and cabling infrastructure to achieve near-Fibre Channel performance at a lower total cost of ownership.

• Seamless Controller Matching: The 4-pack kit is perfectly scaled to populate the host ports of an MSA controller, ensuring a uniform and high-speed connection out of the box.

• Mission-Critical Reliability: As a genuine HPE-validated accessory, the S0K91A eliminates the risks of "unsupported transceiver" errors and ensures 100% interoperability with HPE ProLiant servers and MSA storage.
