Description

This 3m QSFP+ to QSFP+ active optical cable delivers 40GbE (40GBASE-SR4) over multimode fibre using integrated optics, so no separate transceivers or patch cables are required. It suits short 40G links within a rack or between adjacent racks in data centre and top-of-rack deployments. The hot-pluggable QSFP+ form factor and fixed 3m length make it a simple, low-latency option for switch-to-switch or switch-to-server connectivity.

Enquire with XS Network Tech for new or used pricing and availability.

FAQs

Q: What is the length of this cable?
A: This AOC is 3 metres long, suited to short links within a rack or between adjacent racks.

Q: Do I need separate transceivers?
A: No. The optics are integrated into each QSFP+ end of the cable, so no separate transceivers or fibre patch cables are required.

Q: What type of fibre does it use?
A: It carries 40GBASE-SR4 over multimode fibre at 850nm.

Q: Can it be used for longer runs?
A: The 3m length is intended for short-reach connections. For longer distances, use a longer AOC length or a separate QSFP+ transceiver with structured fibre cabling.

Q: What ports does it connect to?
A: It connects to QSFP+ ports on both ends, supporting 40GbE switch-to-switch or switch-to-server links.
