Brocade 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001 Compatible 40G QSFP+ Active Optical Cable, 30m (98ft)

This 30m (98ft) AOC cable is built for Brocade equipment requiring the 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001 interface. The 40Gbps link uses QSFP+ to QSFP+ and is supplied as one complete tested assembly.

OEM Part Number: 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001HT Part Number: 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Brocade 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001
• 40G connectivity at 40Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 30m (98ft), 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001
• Minimum bend radius: 30mm

This assembly uses OFNP jacket, minimum bend radius 30mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

The extended 30m (98ft) reach supports connections across adjacent racks or between separated equipment rows. Secure the cable along its route, protect both ends from pull loads and preserve ventilation. The integrated AOC construction avoids a chain of separate modules and patch leads.

40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001 occupies the middle of this family between 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-2501 at 25m (82ft) and 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-5001 at 50m (164ft). It adds 5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 20m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre Channel. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The optical engines and fiber are permanently integrated into this AOC. There are no detachable optical modules to clean or exchange. Handle the complete assembly by its connector housings and cable, and keep both ends matched to the same interface specification.

The HT cable carries the compatibility configuration associated with 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001, while its mechanical assembly remains the fixed 30m (98ft) version described here. Incoming inspection, connector examination and a live link test are completed before packing. Customers with unusually old or new Brocade software can request a pre-order check.

Quote HT part number 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001 with the required quantity. The 30m (98ft) length is fixed for this part number; if a different length is needed, select its corresponding page and OEM reference from the length list above. Standard HT labels and project-specific packaging are available.

HT inspects and tests every completed cable before it enters finished stock. Protective caps or covers are fitted where applicable, followed by anti-static or tray packaging and an outer carton. Custom labels can cross-reference the customer part number, 40G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-3001 and the 30m (98ft) length for easier inventory control.

Stock items are generally dispatched within one to three working days after order confirmation. DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT and EMS are available for international delivery; larger consolidated orders can move by air or sea freight. Customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
