10-Meter QSFP+ Active Optical Cable Connects High-End Network Equipment up to 40 Gbps

Tripp Lite’s N28F-10M-AQ QSFP+ fiber cable (M/M) combines four full-duplex 10 Gbps SFP+ channels into one affordable high-density package to deliver next-generation performance. The male connectors feature four fiber optic transceivers apiece, each capable of data transfer speeds up to 10 Gbps. Together, this active optical cable (AOC) provides an aggregated speed up to 40 Gbps, making it ideal for switches, servers, routers and other high-end networking devices in your data center or enterprise wiring closet.

Make Fast, Easy One-Handed Connections with Innovative Push/Pull Tabs

The hot-pluggable QSFP+ connectors include ergonomic push/pull tabs, which are easily accessible in high-density applications and make the cable easy to install and remove with just one hand.

T ypical Applications

  • 10GBASE-SR and 40GBASE-SR4 Ethernet
  • InfiniBand QDR (4x10G), DDR (4x5G) and SDR (4x2.5G)
  • 6G SAS and SONET
  • High-speed parallel interconnects for high-performance computing (HPC) and data center interconnects (DCI)
  • Connect active network equipment in high-end server rooms or enterprise wiring closets

Plenum-Rated Cable Comes Engineered and Optimized for Bandwidth-Intense Applications

This QSFP+ to QSFP+ cable integrates a 40 Gbps Ethernet-optimized 38-position “board as connector” design. The plenum-rated OFNP jacket is designed for connecting network components in drop ceiling, walls and ducts. Die-cast zinc connectors are tested to meet stringent insertion loss standards, offer superior EMI resistance and reduce crosstalk. The QSFP+ optical cable’s 8-pair wire technology is optimized for 40GBASE-CR4, 6G SAS, Fibre Channel, PCIe, SONET and InfiniBand applications.
