The StarTech QSFP40GAO7M is a 7-meter active optical cable (AOC) designed for high-speed data center and network interconnects. It provides a reliable, plug-and-play solution for connecting devices that require 40Gbps bandwidth, such as switches, servers, and network interface cards, without the signal degradation associated with passive copper cables over longer distances. This cable is MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) uncoded, meaning it's compatible with a wide range of networking equipment that adheres to MSA standards, simplifying integration into existing infrastructure. The QSFP40GAO7M is ideal for rack-to-rack or intra-rack connections where 40 Gigabit Ethernet performance is critical.
This QSFP+ AOC is designed for broad compatibility with networking equipment supporting the QSFP+ form factor and 40Gbps data rates. It adheres to MSA standards, ensuring interoperability with switches, routers, servers, and storage devices from various manufacturers that support QSFP+ transceivers. Specific compatible product families include high-density 40GbE switches, server network interface cards (NICs), and direct-attached storage (DAS) systems requiring QSFP+ connectivity.
The cable operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F), suitable for standard data center environments. Power consumption is minimal, less than 1.5W per end, which helps manage heat and power budgets in dense deployments. The cable itself has dimensions of 1.8 cm width and 1.3 cm height, with a total length of 7.0 meters and a weight of 152.0 grams, making it manageable for installation.
