JL856A HPE Aruba compatible, QSFP28 100G 2 Meter AOC Active Optical Cable

What is a Compatible JL856A?

Compatible JL856A are an equivalent solution for overpriced original JL856A from HPE Aruba, which primarily serve as a margin product for the manufacturer, filling the pockets of the company at your expense. As today's standard for the transmission of optical signals in a network, for example in a data center, compatible HPE Aruba JL856A Active Optical Cables (AOC) provide a way to build high-availability connections in high-speed networks without having to compromise the arbitrary HPE Aruba price policy of the large world conglomerates. A HPE Aruba compatible JL856A offers the same range of functions as an original JL856A and differs only in the product label. The technical set-up of HPE Aruba compatible JL856A and of original JL856A is the same as defined by MSA standards. Only the quality of the installed components can vary. HPE Aruba compatible JL856A from the brand BlueOptics use only high-quality brand lasers (such as Avago or Lumentum) and high-quality ICs (such as Maxim Integrated or Netlogic) and therefore have the same quality or even a better quality as the original JL856A from HPE Aruba. If you are not yet familiar with compatible HPE Aruba JL856A, please let us know. You can request a test sample from gbic-shop.de to try out a compatible HPE Aruba JL856A product in your system.

Benefits of a Compatible JL856A

JL856A AOCs are special industrial products which, as a compatible variant, should only be obtained from a specialist in order to benefit from the following advantages of compatible JL856A.

Low Cost

JL856A AOCs from HPE Aruba cost a lot more in comparison to compatible JL856A. Depending on the model, well-known products are 50% to 1000% more expensive than compatible JL856A from third-party suppliers. Depending on the number of ports required this can quickly increase the cost of a network. In this case, however, it is important not to purchase any compatible JL856A junk products where the quality suffers during the production or already during the product design process which leads to link errors or complete failures of a connection after a short period of use. But even long-life compatible JL856A with high-quality components like the compatible JL856A of the BlueOptics brand from gbic-shop.de, which have an above-average lifetime compared to compatible JL856A no-name products or conventional compatible JL856A brand products, cost only a fraction of the price of original JL856A.

Standardized Production

By setting standards and norms for JL856A AOCs in the internationally appointed Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), compatible JL856A can be designed to meet the exact specifications for an exact fit of the compatible JL856A, the correct design of the compatible JL856A and the exact operation of the compatible JL856A. Depending on the choice of the internal installed components, compatible JL856A can be just as qualitative as the original JL856A. There is therefore no risk of incompatibilities when using compatible JL856A insofar the MSA standards are applied. In addition, compatible JL856A meet all industrial standards, norms and communications regulations. Compatible JL856A of the brand BlueOptics from gbic-shop.de meet all specifications and reach or even exceed all standards.

Compatible Programming

Compatible JL856A must be adapted for the use in its hardware, so that the compatible JL856A can be recognized correctly and the hardware does not deny working with the compatible JL856A. Incorrect programming can lead to functional restrictions as well as a complete lack of function. It is therefore advisable to look for a trusted supplier for the acquisition of compatible JL856A, who have the appropriate know-how and, if you are concerned, provide a test sample of the desired compatible JL856A.

Long Warranty Periods

Some manufacturers do offer limited warranty periods on original products, usually about one year. Others offer life-long warranty periods. However, this lifetime refers to the time while the product is officially offered. If this is terminated as End of Life (EOL) product, the warranty expires. What this says about the real lifetime of a product is left to your imagination. Compatible JL856A of the brand BlueOptics, on the other hand, have a warranty period of 5 years and an average life expectancy of 10 years with continuous individual support from gbic-shop.de. In the unexpectedly occurring event of a fault of the compatible JL856A you will always receive a corresponding exchange cable for your compatible JL856A within the guarantee period.

Special products

Some cable variants are not available in certain manufacturers' portfolios. Compatible JL856A can be adapted in such a way that even cable types with other specifications which are not officially supported by the manufacturer can be used to enable special applications or higher ranges. Compatible JL856A of the brand BlueOptics from gbic-shop.de are 100% compatible, are MSA and RoHS compliant, have an above average lifetime and are available for more than 165 different vendors.

Disadvantages of a Compatible JL856A

Compatible JL856A from gbic-shop.de offer no disadvantages in terms of quality, processing and operation compared to original JL856A. However, if you only pay attention to the price when buying compatible JL856A, you can be surprised badly and cause big problems.

Poor processing - There are manufacturing companies for compatible JL856A, mostly in China, which do not respect the MSA standards during the production process and therefore flood the market with compatible JL856A products that lack precision, show incompatibilities, cause hardware damage or are simply sloppily manufactured and thus endangering security. Since you cannot notice this by just looking at the compatible JL856A product, you may experience a bad awakening after a few weeks of operation, if not already immediately after commissioning.

Toxic Substances in JL856A - If the production of compatible JL856A is not observed to comply with valid industrial and environmental standards, this will lead to a risk to life and limb for you and your employees. Lead and other toxins are used in unclean production processes for compatible JL856A, what is strictly prohibited according to RoHS guidelines.

In order to save costs, in addition to saving on know-how of compatible JL856A and endangering our environment, saving on certifications such as ISO9001 or non-compliance with work laws and work standards are other aspects on how to minimize the total price of a compatible JL856A product. For this reason, caution should be exercised in the case of cheap offers from compatible JL856A or vendors that say things they cannot comply with afterwards, what will be revealed firstly when problems occur while using the compatible JL856A for a time.

Is a Compatible JL856A as good as an Original?

Yes and No. We cannot answer this question in general. Compatible JL856A from gbic-shop.de do not have any disadvantages compared to original JL856A. Nowadays, there are many compatible JL856A that are not even worth the low price they cost. Quickly, the cost of maintenance increases and the savings from buying the compatible JL856A from the beginning disappear more than quickly. Even if malfunctions or errors do not necessarily occur immediately when using compatible JL856A, inferior compatible JL856A can already lead to this in a short time. Reasons for this are poor processing, failure to comply with standards and norms and, above all, the use of lasers and ICs from Asian manufacturers, in the worst case from China, which have not been able, as of now, to match the quality of traditional companies for transmission technology from the US by far. As with any electronic component, this is naturally reflected in the quality of the compatible JL856A product, its longevity and, of course, in the price.

Does a Compatible JL856A Void the Warranty of My HPE Aruba Hardware?

No. The use of compatible JL856A in HPE Aruba hardware does not void or compromise the warranty of the hardware. Since networks are becoming increasingly heterogeneous and many products from different manufacturers are used, it is only natural for JL856A not to be bound to one manufacturer. In so far as you use qualitative compatible JL856A, it is also not possible that a defect of the hardware can be caused by a JL856A that does not have its own current source.

Each BlueOptics BO08C28S1 QSFP28 to QSFP28 AOC Active Optical Cable is covered by a 5-year functional warranty from CBO.

For the entire product lifetime, you will always receive technical support via e-mail and telephone.

The CBO Advance Exchange will include a free shipping of replacement cables from the next business day.
