Applications
Designed for 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 40G QSFP+ Active DAC, 7m (23ft) carries 40Gbps between QSFP+ to QSFP+ interfaces. This unit is produced in 2 standard lengths from 7m (23ft) to 10m (33ft). It installs directly into standard ports with no separate transceivers or patch cords to manage at either end. It is interoperable with Cisco platforms and replaces the Cisco part QSFP-H40G-ACU7M directly.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with 40G InfiniBand 8x DDR, 4x QDR, 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel. It is interoperable with Cisco equipment and serves as a direct equivalent to the Cisco part number QSFP-H40G-ACU7M.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is QSFP-40G-AC07. This cable is available in 7m (23ft) and 10m (33ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory. Wire gauge: 26AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard products are held in stock and usually ship within one to three working days. We dispatch worldwide by DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS, and for bulk orders we arrange air or sea freight. Shipments can also be sent collect on your own courier account or delivered to your freight forwarder.
Quality and Testing
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
Package
Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.
Customization Service
Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
