AddOn QSFP-H40G-AOC1-5M-AO

Cisco Compatible 40G QSFP+ Active Optical Cable

The AddOn QSFP-H40G-AOC1-5M-AO is a high-performance Active Optical Cable (AOC) specifically designed as a 100% compatible solution for Cisco's QSFP-H40G-AOC15M. This hot-pluggable cable provides a robust and high-speed 40 Gigabit Ethernet link for data transfer, with a significant length of 15 meters (49.2 ft). It’s an ideal solution for interconnecting network switches, servers, or storage over longer distances within a data center or campus, offering a reliable and simplified alternative to traditional fiber patch cable, transceiver setups.

This cable is guaranteed to be 100% compatible with Cisco equipment. It has been programmed, uniquely serialized, and tested to ensure it is fully compliant and functional. The AddOn cable will initialize and perform identically to the OEM version. It is also TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, making it a suitable choice for government and public sector procurements, and it adheres to MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards for broad interoperability.

Features :

This Active Optical Cable is engineered with advanced technology to deliver superior performance and reliability. As an AOC, it integrates the transceivers and fiber into a single, sealed unit, which significantly improves signal integrity and reduces potential failure points over longer distances. The QSFP-H40G-AOC1-5M-AO supports a high data transfer rate of 40 Gbit/s, making it suitable for demanding applications in data centers and high-performance computing (HPC) environments. Its hot-pluggable QSFP+ connectors allow for easy installation and removal without the need to power down your equipment, minimizing network downtime. The cable operates at a wavelength of 850nm, which is optimal for its specified reach over multi-mode fiber.

Advanced Options :

The **40G QSFP+** form factor is the standard for 40 Gigabit networking, and this AddOn AOC leverages this technology to provide a powerful and scalable solution. The use of AOC technology also results in lower power consumption and a thinner, lighter cable compared to traditional copper cables, making it easier to route and manage over longer distances. This cable is an essential part of building a resilient and high-speed network backbone for a wide range of bandwidth-intensive applications.
