JD117BHPE H3C JD117B Compatible XFP XFP 10GBASE-SR Transceiver Module
Built for hosts recognizing JD117B, this HT-manufactured XFP module delivers XFP transmission at 850nm. Its rated reach is 300m over OM3 MMF, with LC duplex as the physical interface. The specifications and engineering guidance below support high-density deployments balance optical performance, port access and thermal planning, while keeping HT manufacture separate from the OEM cross-reference.

Applications and Optical Link Design
Typical deployments include switch-to-switch, switch-to-server and aggregation links inside a data hall or between adjacent equipment rooms. The LC duplex interface connects to the specified multimode cabling, and the stated reach depends on fiber grade and link loss. Keep this interface on the matching multimode optical standard rather than connecting it directly to a single-mode wavelength or reach variant.
Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The XFP interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a XFP housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.
The multimode channel should use the fiber grade associated with the stated 300m over OM3 MMF reach. Keep the LC duplex end faces clean and avoid tight bends. Different multimode standards are not interchangeable merely because they share a connector.
Quality Assurance and Packaging
Each JD117B compatible module is inspected, powered up and functionally checked before protective packing. Dust caps and individual trays shield the interface during transport. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling
For this model, the specified transmit-power range is -3.5~5.3dBm; receiver sensitivity is <-13dBm. During commissioning, record the host diagnostic readings after the link has stabilized and compare them with those limits. DOM values are useful operational indicators, but they do not replace calibrated optical measurements when a link is marginal. Investigate unexpected loss through connector inspection, cleaning and a channel measurement before replacing the module. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.
High-Density Port and Thermal Planning
In a densely populated chassis, connector access and airflow form part of the optical-link design. Confirm that neighboring modules and patch leads leave room for latch operation, and include listed power consumption in the host thermal budget. Assess port density together with fiber management. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 10Gbps, wavelength 850nm, rated reach 300m over OM3 MMF.
Ordering Information
Quote HT part number XFP-10GSR-85 together with OEM reference JD117B and quantity. Add the host model and software release when pre-order verification is required. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.
HPE H3C Compatibility and Factory Testing
Compatibility testing for JD117B combines identification with a live link and available transmit, receive and alarm information. Connector condition is inspected separately. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original HPE H3C transceiver?
No. It is an HT-manufactured compatible alternative for equipment that specifies JD117B, not an original HPE H3C-branded module.
Which fiber and connector are required?
Use LC duplex with MMF. The specified maximum reach is 300m over OM3 MMF, subject to fiber quality and total link loss.
Can it be mixed with another wavelength or reach version?
Only when the two ends share the same optical standard, wavelength plan and supported data rate. Check the exact part numbers and link budget rather than relying only on the module form factor.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
