- Durable: fiber optic cables are more durable than copper cables, as they are resistant to electromagnetic interference and are less likely to be damaged by physical impact.
- Compatibility: The Premier Flex version of the cable is compatible with HP devices which makes it easy to use and less time-consuming for the IT professionals.
High Performance
The QK735A HP Premier Flex Multi Mode Fiber Channel Cable has high performance due to several factors. One of the key factors is its LC to LC connector design. LC connectors, also known as Lucent Connectors, are known for their small size and high-density capabilities, making them ideal for use in tight spaces or high-density fiber applications.
Another important factor is the cable’s multi-mode fiber construction. Multi-mode fiber is a type of fiber optic cable that allows multiple light modes to travel through the core, resulting in higher bandwidth and longer distances compared to single-mode fiber. This makes the QK735A cable suitable for high-speed data transfer applications, such as storage area networks (SANs) and data centers.
Additionally, the cable is made with HP Premier Flex material, which provides extra flexibility and durability, making it easy to install and handle. This material also provides resistance to temperature changes, humidity, and other environmental factors, ensuring stable and reliable performance over time.
Finally, the cable’s 15m length allows for a greater distance between devices, making it an ideal solution for connecting devices that are located farther away from each other.
Installation and Configuration
- Unpack the QK735A HP Premier Flex Multi Mode Fiber Channel Cable and ensure all components are present and undamaged.
- Connect one end of the cable to the LC port on the source device, such as a server or storage array.
- Connect the other end of the cable to the LC port on the destination device, such as a switch or storage array.
- Verify that both ends of the cable are securely connected and that the locking tabs are engaged.
- Power on the source and destination devices.
- Configure the source and destination devices to communicate over the fiber channel protocol. This may involve setting up zoning or LUN masking, depending on the specific device.
- Test the connection by running diagnostic tests or by transferring data between the source and destination devices.
- Once the connection is established, the QK735A HP Premier Flex Multi Mode Fiber Channel Cable is now ready for use.
