Description

Add-On CAB-Q-Q-2M-AO 40GbE QSFP+ Direct Attach Cable

Overview

The Add-On CAB-Q-Q-2M-AO is a TAA-compliant, 2-meter direct attach copper cable designed for high-speed, short-reach interconnects within racks or adjacent racks. It terminates in QSFP+ connectors on both ends, enabling 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) connectivity between network switches, servers, or storage devices. This cable is engineered for environments where reliable, high-bandwidth data transfer is critical, such as enterprise datacenters and high-performance computing clusters.

Compatibility

This cable is designed to be compatible with Arista Networks QSFP+ ports and other network equipment utilizing the QSFP+ interface for 40GbE connections. It is suitable for use with any system that supports 40GBASE-CU standards, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of network hardware.

Installation Notes

The QSFP+ connectors feature a pull-tab or loop mechanism for secure insertion and removal. Ensure the connectors are fully seated in the QSFP+ ports to establish a stable 40GbE link. The cable's 2-meter length is ideal for intra-rack or inter-rack connections where cable management is simplified by shorter runs, reducing clutter and potential signal degradation over longer distances.
