Active Optical Cable
40G QSFP+ to QSFP+, Active Optical Cables (AOC) are specifically engineered for short-distance connections within and between racks, offering a cost-effective solution for in High-Performance Computing (HPC) clusters and cloud and enterprise network. The length is up to 300 meters using OM3 MMF.

The Asterfusion 40G QSFP+ Active Optic Cables (AOCs) are fiber assemblies designed for direct attachment, featuring QSFP+ connectors. These AOCs adhere to the QSFP MSA, 40G Ethernet IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-SR4, and InfiniBand SDR/DDR/QDR standards, ensuring compatibility and interoperability.
These cables are specifically engineered for short-distance connections within and between racks, offering a cost-effective solution. The 40G QSFP+ AOC consists of four full-duplex lanes, with each lane capable of transmitting data at rates up to 10.3Gb/s. The aggregated data rate reaches 41.2Gb/s.
Using OM3 multimode fiber (MMF), these AOCs can span distances of up to 300 meters, providing ample reach for various setups and configurations.

FAQ

What is a 40G QSFP+ to 40G AOC cable?
This Active Optical Cable (AOC) speeds data transfer between 40GbE devices. It connects 40GbE switches, servers, and storage devices via QSFP+ connectors on both sides.

What are the advantages of 40G QSFP+ active optical cables?
AOC technology can reach 1–10 meters farther than copper DAC wires. Fiber optics reduce signal loss and ensure error-free data transmission over long distances. Wiring is simpler with one long cable instead of multiple shorter ones. Most AOCs utilize less power than copper ones.

How many lengths of QSFP+ active optical cables?
This AOC cable comes in 1 meter, 3 meters, 5 meters, 7 meters, and 10 meters to fulfill your demands.

Does this AOC work with any specific brands of networking equipment?
Our AOC is MSA-compatible, thus it works with a wide range of networking equipment from different manufacturers.
