Add-On QFX-QSFP-DAC-3M-AO Direct Attach Copper Cable
Overview
The Add-On QFX-QSFP-DAC-3M-AO is a 3-meter direct attach copper (DAC) cable designed for high-speed network interconnectivity. This cable provides a cost-effective, low-latency solution for short-reach applications within racks or adjacent racks, commonly found in data center and enterprise network environments. It eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fiber optic cabling, simplifying deployment and reducing potential points of failure.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered for compatibility with Juniper Networks QFX series switches and other networking equipment utilizing QSFP+ ports. It is suitable for connecting switches, servers, and storage devices that require 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) connectivity over short distances. Verify compatibility with your specific switch model's documentation for QSFP+ DAC cable support.
Installation Notes
Ensure the QSFP+ ports on both connected devices are clean and free of debris before insertion. The cable's connectors are designed for a secure push-pull fit. Avoid sharp bends or excessive tension on the cable to maintain signal integrity and prevent damage. The cable is passive, requiring no external power source.
