HPE 455885-001 Blade System Transceiver

The HPE 455885-001 is a 10Gb SFP+ optical transceiver designed for HPE BladeSystem c-Class environments, providing high-speed short-reach fibre connectivity for blade interconnects and 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks. For data centre teams maintaining or expanding BladeSystem c-Class enclosures, this module remains one of the most frequently requested spares, and Euroland IT Store keeps both new and refurbished units available for immediate dispatch across the UK.

As a hot-pluggable SFP+ module, the 455885-001 installs directly into a compatible SFP+ port without downtime, making it a practical choice for adding uplink capacity, replacing a failed optic or standardising spares across multiple enclosures. It supports 10Gb Ethernet traffic over multimode fibre with LC connectors, which is the standard cabling already deployed in most blade environments, so installation typically requires no changes to existing fibre infrastructure. It sits within our wider range of networking transceivers covering SFP+, SFP28 and QSFP28 modules.

Network engineers choose the HPE 455885-001 when they need an exact-match part for BladeSystem interconnect modules rather than a generic third-party optic. Using the correct part number from our range of HPE parts protects supportability, avoids compatibility warnings and keeps configuration records clean, which matters for teams running formal change control and asset management processes.

Because BladeSystem c-Class is now a mature platform, sourcing this transceiver new from distribution can be slow or expensive. Euroland IT Store solves that problem with tested refurbished stock alongside new units, so you can keep older estates running at a sensible cost. Every 455885-001 transceiver is inspected and verified before shipping, and our team can also help you locate related interconnects, adapters and cables for the same environment.

Benefits

Fitting the correct 455885-001 optic keeps BladeSystem uplinks running at full 10Gb line rate with the low latency that virtualised workloads and storage traffic depend on. An exact-match HPE part number removes the risk of unsupported third-party optics being rejected or flagged by interconnect firmware, and it keeps your hardware inventory consistent for audits and support renewals. Many customers pair this optic with upstream switching such as the HPE JH390A FlexFabric 5940 48-Port Switch, which is commonly deployed above BladeSystem uplinks in the same 10Gb fabric.

For organisations running mature c-Class estates, buying refurbished delivers significant savings against original list pricing while extending the life of proven infrastructure. Refurbished units from Euroland IT Store are tested prior to dispatch, so you get dependable link stability at a fraction of the new-part cost. New stock is also available where procurement policy requires it. If you are connecting rack servers into the same network, the HPE P28787-B21 X710 10Gb SFP+ Adapter is a popular server-side companion purchase.

Because transceivers are a common failure point, holding one or two spare 455885-001 modules on site is inexpensive insurance against unplanned downtime. With UK stock, quick quotes and volume discounts for resellers and IT departments, replacing or expanding BladeSystem connectivity is straightforward and cost-effective.
