Description

This 5 meter QSFP+ to QSFP+ 40 Gigabit Ethernet active optical cable provides fixed-length 40GBASE-AOC connectivity over multimode fibre at 850nm. The transceivers are integrated at both ends, so no separate optics are needed. It suits short-reach 40G links between switch ports within a rack or across adjacent racks, and supports digital diagnostic monitoring for link health visibility.

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

FAQs

Q: What type of connector does this cable use?
A: Both ends are QSFP+ connectors with the optical transceivers permanently integrated into the cable, so it plugs directly into QSFP+ ports.

Q: What is the length and maximum data rate?
A: The cable is 5 meters (16.4 ft) long and carries 40 Gigabit Ethernet.

Q: Do I need separate transceivers to use this cable?
A: No. As an active optical cable, the optics are built into each end, so no separate transceivers are required.

Q: What fibre type and wavelength does it use?
A: It uses 850 nm VCSEL optics over multimode fibre (OM3) between the two QSFP+ ends.

Q: Where is this cable best deployed?
A: It suits short-reach 40G links between switch ports within a rack or across adjacent racks, where a fixed 5 meter run is sufficient.
