Dell CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-10M Compatible 40G QSFP+ Active Copper Cable, 10m (33ft)

With a fixed 10m (33ft) cable and QSFP+ to QSFP+, the CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-10M compatible assembly simplifies 40G deployment. It is manufactured and tested by HT for Dell equipment.

OEM Part Number: CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-10MHT Part Number: CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-10M

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Dell CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-10M
• 40G connectivity at 40Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 10m (33ft), CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-10M
• Conductor specification: 26AWG
• Minimum bend radius: 40mm

This assembly uses 26AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 40mm. 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 10m (33ft) 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 ACC construction avoids a chain of separate modules and patch leads.

CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-10M is the longest of 2 verified length options in this family. Compared with CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-7M at 7m (23ft), it provides 3m of additional reach for a longer vertical drop, a wider rack or an adjacent-cabinet route. Confirm that the complete path requires this length, because unused slack still needs supported, bend-safe storage.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include 40G InfiniBand 8x DDR, 4x QDR, 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

For this Dell application, testing combines digital identification with actual traffic-link verification and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Both ends are inspected for latch, boot and connector damage. If the project uses a specific hardware revision or a channelized port, send those details so that the intended configuration can be reviewed before shipment.

This product is ordered as CBL-QSFP-40GE-ACTV-10M in 10m (33ft). Include the equipment model and software release if you would like a pre-order compatibility review. Other lengths use different part numbers and should not be substituted into the same order line.

Production inspection covers both physical condition and a live link check. Connector ends receive individual protection, and the completed assembly is packed without tight ties or sharp bends. For multi-length projects, cartons can be separated and labelled by OEM part number to simplify installation on site.
