Overview

The Add-On ADD-QCIQIN-AOC15M is a 15-meter TAA-compliant Active Optical Cable (AOC) with QSFP+ connectors. It provides a direct, high-bandwidth connection for 40 Gigabit Ethernet applications, eliminating the need for separate transceivers and fiber optic patch cords. This cable is designed for environments requiring reliable, high-speed data transmission between network devices like switches, routers, and servers, specifically within Cisco and Intel ecosystems.

Compatibility

This QSFP+ AOC is engineered for compatibility with Cisco and Intel networking equipment that utilizes QSFP+ ports for 40GbE connectivity. It is suitable for direct connection between compatible QSFP+ ports on switches, servers, and storage devices within these vendor environments. Verify your specific Cisco or Intel model supports QSFP+ AOCs for 40Gbps connections.

Installation Notes

Ensure QSFP+ ports on both connected devices are clean and free of debris before insertion. The QSFP+ connectors are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion. Apply gentle, even pressure when connecting and disconnecting the cable. The AOC requires no configuration; it is plug-and-play.
