Applications
In 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 40G QSFP+ Passive DAC, 1m (3ft) provides a factory terminated 40Gbps link between QSFP+ to QSFP+ ports. This unit is delivered in 7 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 7m (23ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. Compatibility with Cisco systems is verified in our own test lab before shipment, so the unit works out of the box as an equivalent of QSFP-H40G-CU1M.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with SFF-8436, QSFP+ MSA and IEEE 802.3ba. It is interoperable with Cisco equipment and serves as a direct equivalent to the Cisco part number QSFP-H40G-CU1M.
Ordering Information
The ordering part number is QSFP-40G-PC01. We make this cable in 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 1.5m (5ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft) and 7m (23ft). Special lengths outside this range can be produced to order. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.
Delivery
Goods are normally sent by courier such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS; air and sea freight are also available on request. Commonly used items are kept in stock for immediate shipment, and out-of-stock items are usually delivered within a few working days. We can also ship on your courier account or hand goods to your appointed forwarder.
Reliability Control
From incoming component inspection to final burn-in, quality is controlled at each step of production. Finished units are verified on real networking equipment in our compatibility lab, and test records are kept per batch so that any field question can be traced back quickly.
Packaging Options
Default packaging is simple and protective: sealed bag, blister tray, export carton. For OEM customers we also offer white-label packing, custom printed boxes and per-unit labeling with your own part numbers, so the goods can go straight into your sales channel.
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.
