ENET Solutions QSFP-DAC-5M-ENC QSFP+ Direct Attach Cable

Overview

The ENET Solutions QSFP-DAC-5M-ENC is a 5-meter passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable designed for high-density 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) connections. It provides a cost-effective, low-latency solution for short-reach interconnects between switches, routers, and servers within a rack or adjacent racks. This cable is engineered to meet the demands of data centers and high-performance networking environments where reliable, high-speed data transfer is critical. The QSFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of networking hardware.

Compatibility

This cable is designed to be compatible with networking equipment that supports the QSFP+ interface, including many Juniper Networks switches and routers. It functions as a direct replacement for Juniper part number JNP-QSFP-DAC-5M, offering equivalent performance and connectivity. Verify your network device's QSFP+ port specifications to ensure interoperability.

Installation Notes

Passive DAC cables require no external power. Ensure the QSFP+ ports on both connected devices are clean and free of debris. The cable connectors are designed for a secure push-pull fit; avoid excessive force. The 5-meter length offers flexibility for intra-rack or adjacent-rack connections. Operating temperature range is typically 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F).
