AOC kábel CBO JNP-40G-AOC-2M 40G QSFP aktívny optický kábel, 2 m

Active Optical Cable CBO JNP-40G-AOC-2M 40G QSFP is a 2‑meter high‑speed link engineered for short‑reach direct connections between QSFP ports. The cable supports aggregated 40 Gbit/s data rates over an optical medium, delivering low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives. Its QSFP to QSFP form factor enables plug‑and‑play installation in switches, routers and server network interfaces commonly found in data centers and enterprise network racks.

Advantages

The AOC design provides stable 40 Gbit/s throughput with reduced power draw and simpler thermal management relative to longer active modules. Optical transmission eliminates susceptibility to EMI and crosstalk, improving signal integrity in dense cabling environments. The 2 m length offers flexibility for short interconnects while minimizing excess cable bulk. Native QSFP termination and plug‑and‑play operation simplify installation and reduce configuration time.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between QSFP ports on top‑of‑rack and spine switches
• High‑speed links between servers and switches in rack deployments
• Short‑reach connections in data centers, colocation and enterprise network closets
• Low-latency links for storage, virtualization and high-performance computing clusters

Key specifications

• Data rate: 40 Gbit/s aggregate
• Connector type: QSFP to QSFP
• Length: 2 metres
• Transmission medium: active optical cable (AOC)
• Latency: low, suitable for short‑reach high‑speed interconnects
• EMI performance: immune to electromagnetic interference compared with copper cables
• Installation: hot‑pluggable, plug‑and‑play

How to use

Insert each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on the devices to be connected, ensuring the connectors align with the port keying. No additional transceivers or fiber patching are required; the link should be recognized by network devices automatically subject to their firmware and driver support. For first‑time setups, confirm the device firmware supports QSFP AOC links at 40 Gbit/s and verify link status through the network management interface. If required, check interface settings for speed and duplex compatibility.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for optical fibers. Use the 2 m length for short interconnects within racks or between adjacent racks. Keep QSFP ports and connector latches free of dust and debris, and perform firmware updates on connected devices to ensure full compatibility with AOC links.
