LR-LINK QSFP+ 40G Active Optical Cable, 3m length, supporting up to 11.3Gb/s per lane for high-speed data center interconnects.
High-density data centers often struggle with the weight and airflow restrictions caused by bulky copper direct attach cables (DAC). The LR-LINK QSFP+-AOC-3m addresses these physical constraints by offering a lighter, thinner alternative that maintains robust connectivity for 40G Ethernet applications.
This active optical cable supports an aggregated data rate of 45.2Gb/s across four full-duplex lanes, with each lane transmitting at up to 11.3Gb/s. It conforms to the SFF-8431 standard electrical interface, ensuring fast and reliable integration with existing infrastructure while reducing power consumption to just 1.5W.
Ideal for connecting servers, switches, and host card adapters, this 3-meter AOC supports InfiniBand QDR, SDR, and DDR protocols. Its OM3 MMF compatibility allows transmission distances up to 100m, making it a versatile solution for scalable network architectures requiring high bandwidth and low latency.
Supports 40G Ethernet with an aggregated rate of 45.2Gb/s across 4 full-duplex lanes.
Acts as a drop-in replacement for traditional DACs with smaller diameter and lighter weight.
Features a hot-pluggable QSFP+ footprint for easy installation and maintenance.
Operates with a maximum power consumption of only 1.5W.
