Extreme Networks 40G-DACP-QSFP5M

QSFP+ Direct Attach Copper Network Cable

The Extreme Networks 40G-DACP-QSFP5M is a 5-meter **QSFP+ Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable** designed for high-speed 40 Gigabit Ethernet applications. This passive copper cable is a reliable and cost-effective solution for short-reach connectivity within a rack or between adjacent racks in data centers. It provides a non-blocking, wire-speed solution with low latency and low power consumption, making it an ideal alternative to optical transceivers for short distances. The cable is factory-terminated with QSFP+ connectors on both ends, ensuring a secure and simple plug-and-play installation without the need for additional modules.

Advanced Features :

The Extreme Networks 40G-DACP-QSFP5M is engineered for a secure and scalable network infrastructure. As a passive DAC, it does not require an active electrical signal boosting, relying on the host hardware to drive the signal. This design results in extremely low power consumption (near 0W), which contributes to energy savings and reduced operational costs in the data center. The cable is designed to be fully compliant with industry standards such as IEEE 802.3ba and the QSFP+ Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), ensuring broad compatibility with Extreme Networks switches and other compliant hardware.

Features :

The Extreme Networks 40G-DACP-QSFP5M is designed for simplified deployment and maintenance. Its QSFP+ to QSFP+ connector design allows for a direct connection between 40G ports, reducing the complexity of the cabling infrastructure. The 5-meter length is suitable for a wide range of in-rack and adjacent-rack applications. This reliable cable is an ideal choice for IT professionals looking to build a high-performance and cost-effective data center network.
