Description
Meet the Black Box LSP400 SFP+ Module, a high-performance transceiver engineered to elevate network throughput in data centers, enterprise networks, and service provider backbones. Delivering up to 10 Gbps over a standard SFP+ form factor, this module enables seamless, plug-and-play expansion of core bandwidth while minimizing downtime. Designed for reliability in demanding environments, the LSP400 supports dense rack deployments and easy hot-swapping, empowering IT teams to scale server-to-server links, storage networks, and backbone uplinks without disrupting ongoing operations. With broad compatibility across brands and devices that support SFP+ modules, the LSP400 ensures a smooth integration path in mixed hardware landscapes, reducing compatibility headaches and accelerating upgrade cycles. Whether you’re modernizing a leaf-spine data center, expanding virtualization clusters, or provisioning edge devices, the LSP400 is built to keep pace with data growth and latency-sensitive workloads, delivering sustained performance even under heavy traffic.
- Ultra-fast 10 Gbps performance for latency-sensitive applications and virtualized environments, enabling high-throughput server-to-server, storage, and backbone connectivity while maintaining tight latency budgets.
- SFP+ form factor for flexible, dense deployments and easy hot-swapping in live environments, allowing administrators to scale capacity without taking systems offline.
- Broad compatibility across brands and devices that support SFP+ modules, enabling seamless integration into mixed hardware topologies from data centers to campus networks.
- Reliable operation under heavy traffic thanks to precise optical alignment and high-quality components, delivering steady throughput, reduced error rates, and long-term service life in multi-shift networks.
- Easy installation and ongoing maintenance with driver-free, plug-and-play capability integrated with standard network management tools, simplifying upgrades and reducing mean time to repair (MTTR).

How to install Black Box LSP400 SFP+ Module
- Power down or follow your device’s hot-swap procedures, and ground yourself to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) before handling the module.
- Identify an available SFP+ port on a compatible switch, router, or NIC that supports SFP+ transceivers and is configured for 10 Gigabit Ethernet.
- Carefully align the LSP400 with the port and insert it straight into the slot until the module seats firmly with a satisfying click of the retention mechanism.
- Power on the device (if required) and verify that the transceiver is recognized, the link LED indicators are active, and the correct speed is reported by the device’s management interface.
- Perform a basic connectivity check and throughput test, then monitor the link through your existing network management system to confirm stable operation over time.
