AddOn QSFP-40G-AOC5M-AO

MSA Compliant 40G QSFP+ Active Optical Cable

The AddOnQSFP-40G-AOC5M-AO is a high-performance Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed to provide seamless interoperability across various networking platforms that comply with MSA standards. This hot-pluggable cable provides a robust and high-speed 40 Gigabit Ethernet link for data transfer, with a length of 5 meters (16.4 ft). It's an ideal solution for interconnecting network switches, servers, or storage within a single rack, offering a reliable and simplified alternative to traditional fiber patch cable, transceiver setups.

This Active Optical Cable has been programmed, uniquely serialized, and tested to ensure it is fully compliant and functional. The AddOn cable will initialize and perform identically to other MSA-compliant cables. Its adherence to MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards ensures broad interoperability, making it a versatile choice for network administrators. TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant versions of this part are also available, making it suitable for government and public sector procurements.

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. The QSFP-40G-AOC5M-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 in high-density environments. This cable is an essential part of building a resilient and high-speed network backbone for a wide range of bandwidth-intensive applications.
