Description

The J4860D-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Aruba J4860D. This SFP transceiver operates plug-and-play in Aruba switches that support the J4860D specification. - IEEE 802.3z compliant 1000BASE-ZX ensures interoperability across standard Gigabit Ethernet platforms - SFP form factor with 1550nm wavelength transmission over single-mode fibre to 70km - Digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM) via SFF-8472 for real-time link visibility - LC duplex connector interface for standard SMF patch cable compatibility - Hot-swappable design supports installation and removal without network downtime - Operates on standard 3.3V power supply with low thermal profile

Features

• IEEE 802.3z compliance guarantees 1000BASE-ZX interoperability with any MSA-compliant SFP host regardless of vendor, eliminating proprietary lock-in for long-reach Gigabit Ethernet links
• 1550nm laser wavelength delivers extended reach compared to 1310nm LX optics, making this the standard choice for metro, campus backbone, and inter-building spans beyond 10km where legacy CWDM infrastructure is not present
• SFF-8472 digital diagnostics provide real-time access to transmit power, receive power, temperature, bias current, and voltage via standard monitoring commands, enabling proactive link margin analysis before outages occur
• Hot-swappable SFP mechanical design allows field replacement without host shutdown or adjacent port disruption, maintaining uptime during optics refresh or troubleshooting procedures
• Single-mode fibre (OS1/OS2) operates over 9/125µm core with minimal dispersion penalty at 1550nm, ensuring clean eye diagrams and low bit error rates across the full 70km distance budget on quality fibre plants
• 8b/10b line encoding at 1.25Gbaud delivers DC-balanced signalling and embedded clock recovery, meeting the physical layer requirements established by IEEE 802.3z for reliable Gigabit Ethernet transmission
• Standard commercial temperature range (0 to 70°C) suits controlled server room and data centre environments where ambient temperatures remain within ASHRAE TC 9.9 guidelines

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Aruba J4860D?
A: Yes. The J4860D-BCC is designed as a plug-and-play replacement for the Aruba J4860D. It shares the same SFP form factor, 1.25 Gbps data rate, 1550nm wavelength, and IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-ZX compliance, ensuring identical electrical and optical performance in any Aruba switch or router that accepts the OEM J4860D module.

Q: Which Aruba platforms support this transceiver?
A: This transceiver is compatible with Aruba switches and routers that support 1000BASE-ZX SFP modules, including the 2530, 2540, 2620, 2930F, and similar platforms equipped with SFP slots. Any Aruba device with SFP ports that accepts the J4860D will recognise and operate this module without configuration changes.

Q: What is the maximum distance I can achieve with this module?
A: The J4860D-BCC supports up to 70km over 9/125µm single-mode fibre (OS1 or OS2). Actual reach depends on fibre quality, splice loss, connector cleanliness, and total link attenuation. The module provides a 21dB optical budget; links with lower insertion loss may exceed 70km, while poorly maintained fibre plants may require margin testing to confirm viability.

Q: Can I mix this transceiver with OEM Aruba optics on the same link?
A: Yes. Both ends of a 1000BASE-ZX link must use 1550nm optics with compatible receive sensitivity and transmit power, but they do not need to be from the same manufacturer. The IEEE 802.3z standard ensures interoperability between any compliant 1000BASE-ZX SFP modules, so you can pair the J4860D-BCC with an Aruba J4860D or any other vendor 1550nm SFP on the opposite end.

Q: Does this module support Digital Optical Monitoring?
A: Yes. The J4860D-BCC implements SFF-8472 Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM), allowing the host switch to read real-time transmit power, receive power, laser bias current, supply voltage, and module temperature. This data is accessible via CLI or SNMP on platforms that support DOM, enabling proactive link troubleshooting and optical power budget verification without external test equipment.
