HPE Premier Flex LC/LC OM4 2f 5m Cable (QK734A) is firmware-coded for native compatibility with HPE FlexFabric, FlexNetwork, StoreFabric, and ProLiant platforms featuring SFP+/SFP28/QSFP+ interfaces. This multimode duplex optical fiber patch cable delivers enterprise-grade performance for demanding data center and storage network environments where reliability and speed are non-negotiable.

The QK734A is a 5 m LC/LC duplex cable engineered with 50/125 µm OM4 fiber and an enhanced bend-insensitive Premier Flex jacket in aqua, optimized for 850 nm VCSEL wavelength deployment. With a minimum effective modal bandwidth of 4700 MHz·km, this HPE cable supports 10GbE, 16Gb Fibre Channel, 40GbE with QSFP+ breakout, and 10GFC protocols, making it ideal for network engineers and storage architects modernizing high-speed fabric interconnects. UPC connector polish ensures signal integrity and minimal insertion loss across multi-gigabit deployments. Whether you are consolidating data center networks or scaling SAN infrastructure, the QK734A delivers the performance and compatibility that HPE environments demand.

Typical Enterprise Deployment Scenarios

• High-speed fabric interconnects between HPE FlexFabric switches and storage arrays requiring 10GbE or 40GbE uplinks
• 16Gb Fibre Channel SAN extensions within ProLiant server clusters and StoreFabric storage platforms
• Short-reach optical patch runs (5 m) in equipment racks and between adjacent cabinet rows in tier-1 data centers
• 10GFC storage network upgrades where bend-sensitive legacy cables create deployment challenges and physical space constraints
• Multi-protocol network modernization projects requiring a single certified cable type across converged HPE infrastructure
