Olliedawg Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Anyone know where I can buy some genuine 10Gb SFP transceivers for our 5406zl? I've found a listing on amazon but it's a fraction of the price elsewhere, so dubious of whether they are actually genuine... HP J9150A : Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories Chassis : 5406zl J8697A HP J9538A 8p 10G-GbE SFP+ v2 zl Module Pretty sure our switch doesn't support non HP transceivers, and doesn't support the "allow-unsupported-transceiver" command, so we need genuine.
Steve21 Posted August 10 Posted August 10 (edited) We normally get all ours on FS, they're as genuine for non-genuine you'll get 😛 SFP-10GSR-85 J9150D HPE Aruba Compatible 10GBASE-SR SFP+ 850nm 300m DOM Duplex LC/UPC MMF Optical Transceiver Module for HPE Aruba and OfficeConnect Switch Series £24.00 £24 last time I did an order HPE Aruba J9150D Compatible 10GBASE-SR SFP+ 850nm 300m Duplex LC/UPC MMF Transceiver Module for HPE Aruba and OfficeConnect Switch Series - FS.com United Kingdom Edit - Just to clarify we run those in the newer 5406s, so they're certainly supported for those (They re-code them to be "genuine" as such), but obviously would be worth checking with a small order for your specific one (If you email them with model specific details they'll recommend the correct ones too) Steve Edited August 10 by Steve21

Thanks though. Might have a look on eBay Edited August 10 by Olliedawg
ThomL Posted August 10 Posted August 10 FS.com should work, I've used them for several 5406 generations - just make sure you are buying the correct product, if needed fs support were very good the last time I worked with them. As an example, the product Steve linked to is a match for the J9150D - you linked to the J9150A, this is a different product on FS.com: J9150A-I HPE ProCurve Compatible 10GBASE-SR SFP+ 850nm 300m Duplex LC/UPC MMF Transceiver Module (Industrial) - FS.com United Kingdom If you can find the latest manual for the generation of 5406 you have, there should be a list of compatible HP parts with a J code that you can then use to find the correct product on FS.com. 1
gaz350b Posted August 10 Posted August 10 (edited) You might also need to enable trans over non supported mode on the switch can’t remember the exact command when using non hp transceivers ignore me after re-reading your post! Edited August 10 by gaz350b

It annoying you can only write to Ubiquiti SFPs; for the cost of 1 Ubiquiti 10GB SFP you could buy 2 from fs.com pre-programmed, add in the cost of the programming tool and you could buy a third SFP from FS.com. But it could allow some freedom moving forwards if SFPs are costing more than the Ubiquiti option or you would reuse SFP between different switch - remove from HP, flash with tool and then install to Cisco etc. could be very handy. -Edit: I was looking at the 100G transceivers on the Ubiquiti website - the 10 GB multimode options appear to be much cheaper @ £16. Depending on how many SFP's you're going to need thie programming tool might be usful! Edited August 11 by ThomL Too early, UI need coffee and to read !
Davit2005 Posted August 11 Posted August 11 (edited) I've had success with Ipolex SFP+ transcievers. Both on Aruba CX and Aruba 2930f switches. https://www.amazon.co.uk/ipolex-Transceiver-10GBase-SR-Multimode-Compatible/dp/B0DPG3GWD2/ref=sr_1_10?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.C0F3HXfSa_Upg0PmJc23hg85mrrsfGniZWGPYEb5fSGDjojkFzKh5mvqL6RPrYfOYq0dprazVKGfLdJoXBGfITdTB75eWamLkirkxn2K1zKz61tqEokFHtT2XgMRiQIM7UTZjmwaz_VDTV5NrGQ7BV7YIn651FdNum5c0lsVGIy8sX8Jpc__Wq6B8CzXtZBVcEphzJ2ci2y9fvTGHH3lIt09PXLkTQ6Zz3HDw06Y-rY.SaU4mT9hxo6PtTW_rPqabImCcyyxVa4cxLMQkXMioig&dib_tag=se&keywords=J9150A&qid=1786440646&sr=8-10&th=1 Here is output from Aruba CX with the iPolex module in Transceiver in 1/1/50 Interface Name : 1/1/50 Type : 10G-SR / 10G SFP+ SR Transceiver Status : An HPE pluggable module that is supported in this interface Diagnostic Support : DOM Connector Type : LC Wavelength : 850nm Transfer Distance : 0.00km (SMF), 300m (OM1), 300m (OM2), 300m (OM3) Product Number : J9150A Serial Number : M1806264364 Edited August 11 by Davit2005
StephenPink Posted August 11 Posted August 11 Also generally recommend FS.com for everything - and the reprogramming side of things! More specifically though, I've been taking out a lot HP/Aruba switches and 10Gb SFPs so @Olliedawg if you confirm the exact part numbers you want I'll have a rummage and you're more than welcome to any I have? Cheers

synaesthesia Posted August 12 Posted August 12 Our 5406 was absolutely chock full of FS 10gb modules, absolutely should work - suspect you might have been really unlucky They are really good with support also so if something doesn't work they'll swap out very quickly. Plus you can then keep a couple of spares (or a dozen) and still spend less than paying for 1 original!
Alastairb25 Posted August 12 Posted August 12 We use Renewtech for Cisco, although they also do HP https://www.renewtech.co.uk/contact/
