Description
The Cisco QSFP-H40G-AOC25M is a 40-Gigabit QSFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed for high-speed, low-latency connections between QSFP+ ports in data center and enterprise environments. With a 25-meter reach, this lightweight optical cable provides superior airflow, reduced cable bulk, and immunity to electromagnetic interference compared to traditional copper DAC solutions.
Ideal for switch-to-switch and switch-to-server interconnects, the QSFP-H40G-AOC25M supports hot-swappable deployment and is fully tested for compatibility with Cisco QSFP+ platforms. Its factory-terminated design ensures reliable performance, simplified installation, and consistent signal integrity in high-density racks.
