Description

Add-On ADD-QCIQIN-AOC5M 40Gbps AOC 5M Cable

Overview

The Add-On ADD-QCIQIN-AOC5M is a 5-meter Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed to bridge network connectivity between Cisco and Intel equipment operating at 40Gbps. This cable is essential for maintaining high-speed data transfer in environments requiring interoperability between these specific vendors, such as data centers or high-performance computing clusters. Its active optical nature provides signal integrity over the 5-meter length without the bulk of traditional transceivers and fiber.

Compatibility

This AOC cable is engineered for direct compatibility with 40GBASE-QSFP+ ports found on Cisco networking hardware and Intel network interface cards (NICs) or switches. It specifically targets scenarios where Cisco QSFP+ ports need to connect to Intel QSFP+ ports, ensuring a plug-and-play experience without requiring additional adapters or complex configuration. It is designed for systems utilizing the QSFP+ form factor for 40 Gigabit Ethernet connections.

Installation Notes

The ADD-QCIQIN-AOC5M features integrated QSFP+ connectors on both ends, allowing for direct insertion into compatible ports. Ensure the ports on both the Cisco and Intel devices are clean and free of debris before insertion. The cable's active components draw minimal power from the host ports, so no external power supply is required. Verify that the host devices support 40Gbps Ethernet and QSFP+ optics for successful operation.
