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

For short reach 40Gbps links in 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 40G QSFP+ Active DAC, 7m (23ft) offers a factory terminated twinax assembly with QSFP+ to QSFP+ connectors and a length of 7m (22.97ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. The cable meets 40G InfiniBand 8x DDR, 4x QDR, 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel.

Applications
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 made in 2 standard lengths from 7m (23ft) to 10m (33ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. It is interoperable with Cisco platforms and replaces the Cisco part QSFP-H40G-ACU7M directly.
Standards and Compatibility
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.
Ordering Information
The part number for this assembly is QSFP-40G-AC07. We offer this cable in 7m (23ft) and 10m (33ft). Other lengths can be custom manufactured on request. Wire gauge: 26AWG. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.
Packing Details
Standard packing is an anti-static bag plus blister protection, with cartons sized to keep products from moving in transit. We apply our standard labels by default; neutral packing or customer-branded labels, part number stickers and serial barcodes are all available on request.
Built to Your Spec
Our product line has grown with the industry for three decades, from GBIC-era modules to today's 800G and 1.6T interconnects. If the exact configuration you need is not listed, we can usually build it: custom lengths, mixed connector breakouts, OEM branding and project-specific firmware coding are all supported.
How We Ship
Most orders travel by international express and arrive within days; palletized freight by air or sea is used for volume orders. If you prefer, we ship on your DHL, UPS or FedEx account, or deliver to your appointed agent in China for onward consolidation.
Quality and Testing
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
