The 40G QSFP+ AOC, 1m (3ft) is an active optical cable assembly with QSFP+ to QSFP+, carrying 40Gbps over OM3 multimode at 850nm. Factory terminated and tested as a complete link, it offers a lighter and more flexible alternative to discrete transceivers with patch cords for 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments. We keep 11 standard lengths ready, running from 1m (3ft) to 50m (164ft).

Applications
Designed for 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 40G QSFP+ AOC, 1m (3ft) carries 40Gbps between QSFP+ to QSFP+ interfaces. This unit is offered in 11 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 50m (164ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. For networks standardized on Cisco hardware, it is a drop-in equivalent of the QSFP-H40G-AOC1M.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre Channel. For projects standardized on Cisco hardware, this product replaces the QSFP-H40G-AOC1M 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
Order this assembly under part number QSFP-40G-AO01. Available lengths are 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft), 30m (98ft) and 50m (164ft). If you need a length outside this list, our factory can build it to order. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Quality Assurance
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
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.
Logistics
Our warehouse keeps fast-moving transceivers and cables ready for same-week dispatch. Courier, air freight and sea freight options are all available depending on your budget and schedule, and we consolidate multiple items into one shipment whenever it saves you cost.
