Use the AOC-Q-Q-40G-25M compatible assembly where a 40G connection is required between compatible ports. This page covers the 25m (82ft) version only, with its own HT part number, specifications and compatibility verification.

OEM Part Number: AOC-Q-Q-40G-25MHT Part Number: AOC-Q-Q-40G-25M

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Arista Networks AOC-Q-Q-40G-25M
• 40G connectivity at 40Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 25m (82ft), AOC-Q-Q-40G-25M
• 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.

AOC-Q-Q-40G-25M occupies the middle of this family between AOC-Q-Q-40G-20M at 20m (66ft) and AOC-Q-Q-40G-30M at 30m (98ft). It adds 5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 5m. 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 extended 25m (82ft) 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.

Our compatibility setup for Arista Networks AOC-Q-Q-40G-25M is checked together with the physical 25m (82ft) assembly. Factory verification covers connector condition, host identification, error-free link establishment and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Providing the exact host model and firmware release helps us identify platform-specific requirements before production.

When ordering, specify AOC-Q-Q-40G-25M, cable length 25m (82ft) and the host platform. This allows our team to verify both the physical assembly and the compatibility requirement before production. Neutral labeling and customer packing lists can be arranged for volume orders.

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, AOC-Q-Q-40G-25M and the 25m (82ft) length for easier inventory control.

Lead time for ordinary configurations is normally one to three working days, while production quantities are confirmed with the order. We can arrange express courier or economy freight according to destination and carton volume, or hand the shipment to your appointed logistics provider.
