Module for HP 2920 Series

The HP J9731A is a 2-port 10GbE SFP+ switch module designed for the HP 2920 Switch Series. It adds two SFP+ slots to the base switch, enabling 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber or direct-attach connections. This accessory installs directly into the switch chassis to expand uplink capacity.

Suits 2920 owners adding 10G uplinks

Network administrators who operate HP 2920 switches and need two additional 10GbE SFP+ ports will use this module. It is not for operators whose switches lack the dedicated module slot or who require a different port count or speed. Buyers without a compatible 2920 chassis cannot install this part.

Two SFP+ ports at 10GbE

The defining specification is the pair of SFP+ ports running at 10 Gigabit Ethernet. This port count and speed determine whether the module matches the uplink density and bandwidth required for the target network design. Verify the switch model accepts the J9731A before purchase.

Questions about this item

What 10GbE interface does the J9731A module provide and what does it cap in practice?

The module adds two SFP+ ports that operate at 10GbE line rate, capping throughput at 10 Gbit/s per port when compatible transceivers and cables are used.

What physical slot does the J9731A need to fit into a 2920 switch?

It installs in the dedicated module bay on the rear of any HP 2920 Switch Series chassis, occupying one full slot.

How is the J9731A installed and which step is often missed?

Power off the 2920 switch, slide the module into the rear bay until it clicks, secure the captive screws, then power on — the step often missed is tightening both captive screws to ensure electrical contact.
