The AJ718A is the HPE 8Gb Short Wave Fibre Channel SFP+ 1 Pack Transceiver, an 8GFC multimode optic with an LC connector and a bail latch. It works at 850 nm over multimode fiber and reaches 150 m on OM3 and 190 m on OM4 at its top speed, with a transmitter power of -8.2 to 0 dBm and a power draw of 1 W.
The transceiver is an option for the FC SFP+ ports of the HPE Comware Switch Series 5945 and for the uplinks of the Virtual Connect SE 100Gb F32 Module for Synergy. It also works in the Virtual Connect 8Gb 20-port Fibre Channel module, and the MSA P2000 G3 SAN starter kit ships with twelve of them.
Cables for the optic are the HPE PremierFlex OM4 LC/LC cables QK732A to QK737A, the OM5 cables R9M64A and R9M65A, and the OM3 cables AJ833A to AJ839A. Faster Fibre Channel optics in the same range include the 793444-001 16Gb SFP+ short wave transceiver and the P9H30A 32Gb SFP28 short wave transceiver, and the switches that take them include the JQ074A Comware 5945 switch.
