Applications
The 40G QSFP+ to 1x 10G SFP+ Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft) is a 40Gbps direct attach copper cable for QSFP+ to SFP+ connections in 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments. This unit is delivered in 5 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 7m (23ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. Our factory programs the compatibility coding for your switch brand before shipment and verifies each unit on real host equipment.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with SFF-8636, SFF-8472. It plugs into any standards-based QSFP+ to SFP+ port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.
Ordering Information
Part numbers change with length, for example QSFP-40G-1SPC005 at the shortest length. We make this cable in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft) and 7m (23ft). Special lengths outside this range can be produced to order. Wire gauge: 26AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Built to Your Spec
Our product line has grown with the industry for three decades, from GBIC-era modules to today's 800G and 1.6T interconnects. If the exact configuration you need is not listed, we can usually build it: custom lengths, mixed connector breakouts, OEM branding and project-specific firmware coding are all supported.
How We Ship
Most orders travel by international express and arrive within days; palletized freight by air or sea is used for volume orders. If you prefer, we ship on your DHL, UPS or FedEx account, or deliver to your appointed agent in China for onward consolidation.
Our Testing Process
Production samples and every outgoing batch pass through bit-error-rate measurement, temperature verification and plug-in compatibility checks on mainstream switches and routers. Because we are the manufacturer, any issue found in testing is fed back to the production line immediately instead of being passed on to customers.
How We Pack
Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.
