40G QSFP+ Active DAC, 7m (23ft)

The 40G QSFP+ Active DAC, 7m (23ft) is a twinax direct attach copper cable with QSFP+ to QSFP+, supporting 40Gbps links over a length of 7m (22.97ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. It is a cost effective, low latency interconnect for 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, and complies with 40G InfiniBand 8x DDR, 4x QDR, 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel.

Product Highlights

• QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Data rate: 40Gbps
• Length: 2 standard options from 7m (23ft) to 10m (33ft)
• Operating temperature: 0 to 70°C (32 to 158°F)

Designed for 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 40G QSFP+ Active DAC, 7m (23ft) carries 40Gbps between QSFP+ to QSFP+ interfaces. This unit is available in 2 standard lengths from 7m (23ft) to 10m (33ft). It installs directly into standard ports with no separate transceivers or patch cords to manage at either end. For networks standardized on Cisco hardware, it is a drop-in equivalent of the QSFP-H40G-ACU7M.

Compliance: 40G InfiniBand 8x DDR, 4x QDR, 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel. For projects standardized on Cisco hardware, this product replaces the QSFP-H40G-ACU7M directly, with identical fit and function. Every unit's EEPROM coding and link behavior are verified on real host equipment in our lab, so what arrives at your site is ready to use.

The standard part number of this assembly is QSFP-40G-AC07. We supply this cable in 7m (23ft) and 10m (33ft). Custom lengths beyond this range can also be produced on request. Wire gauge: 26AWG. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.

Our warehouse keeps fast-moving transceivers and cables ready for same-week dispatch. Courier, air freight and sea freight options are all available depending on your budget and schedule, and we consolidate multiple items into one shipment whenever it saves you cost.

Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.

Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.

Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
