Mellanox Compatible 40GBase-AOC QSFP+ Active Optical Cable, 5m

The UNC GROUP LLC MC2206310-005-U is a high-performance 40GBase-AOC QSFP+ Active Optical Cable designed for high-speed network connections. This 5-meter cable is an ideal solution for short-to-medium distance data center interconnects, providing a reliable and low-latency link for switches, Routers, and servers. It is compatible with Mellanox networking equipment, offering a cost-effective alternative to branded cables without compromising on performance. An Active Optical Cable (AOC) uses optical fiber with integrated transceivers, providing a lightweight and flexible solution that is less susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) compared to traditional copper cables like a Direct Attach Cable (DAC).

As a genuine UNC GROUP LLC component, this cable ensures guaranteed compatibility and optimal performance with Mellanox switches and equipment, providing a seamless and reliable networking solution.

Features :

This Active Optical Cable is engineered with advanced technology to deliver superior performance. It supports a data rate of 40 Gbps, which is crucial for high-bandwidth applications like virtualization and cloud computing. The QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) form factor is a widely adopted standard for 40G connections, ensuring broad compatibility. The MC2206310-005-U is designed for easy installation and removal, and its low power consumption contributes to a more energy-efficient network. The cable's small bend radius and light weight make it easy to manage in crowded data center racks, reducing clutter and improving airflow.

Advanced Options :

The 40GBase-AOC standard of this Active Optical Cable is specifically for high-density, high-speed applications. Its hot-pluggable design allows for modules to be added or replaced without needing to power down the switch, minimizing network downtime. This cable is an essential part of building a resilient and high-speed enterprise network, providing a dependable backbone for a wide range of bandwidth-intensive applications. It is a more cost-effective solution than using separate transceivers and fiber patch cables for short-to-medium distance connections.
