Fun fact, it's a well known system Rome has of deploying literally foreign legions to completely totally unknown areas of the empire to discourage legionaries from deserting the army, these were obviously recruits from the far east of the roman empire deployed on the complete opposite side of the empire, hence as to why you see such a mixture of different eastern cultural influences in the equipment and nationality.

The Roman Empire and the Han Dynasty knew of each other, albeit vaguely.
The Chinese actually held a good amount of respect for the Roman Empire, as they heard it was a powerful empire with vast wealth and trade, like their own. They even considered them to be like a sort of mirror China.
The Romans, on the other hand, were just annoyed about how much gold was being spent on silk that they thought made their women too promiscuous.

At least two of Crassus' legions were captured more or less intact during his invasion of Parthia in 53 B.C. At least one is believed to have been sent to guard the eastern border of the Persian Empire. A Chines ambassador mentions seeing Heavy infantry, very unusual for the Persians, constructing a rectangular camp, c. 50 B.C.

It makes a lot of sense. Scythians, whom a Sarmatians are a subset of, were both in Thrace and China, and being a nomadic horse herding people similar to the Mongols, they facilitated a lot of trade. I could potentially see a Saka from the Ordos Loop acquiring a Chinese sword, trading it to a Sarmatian who then puts his own decorations on it, and that Sarmatian trading it to Thrace, where it landed in the hands of this Roman soldier who then took it with him to Britain

Global trade has always been an integral part of human history.
Ore used for the earliest copper tools found in Finland have been traced to originate from Ireland. And this was around 3600 years bp.
