Juniper Networks EX-QSFP-40GE-DAC-1.5M Compatible 40G QSFP+ Passive Copper Cable, 1.5m (5ft)

The HT-manufactured EX-QSFP-40GE-DAC-1.5M compatible cable provides 40G connectivity for Juniper Networks equipment. This 1.5m (5ft) version is a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords, with an exact part number and length that can be matched directly to the equipment requirement.

Juniper platform documentation distinguishes straight QSFP28 DAC or AOC connections from DACBO and AOCBO breakout operation. On channelized systems, the host port must be configured for the required breakout mode. Match this HT compatible cable to the exact Juniper part number and the intended platform configuration.

The additional half metre beyond a one-metre assembly gives EX-QSFP-40GE-DAC-1.5M useful routing flexibility when the ports are not directly aligned. It can accommodate a different rack unit or a short service loop, but excess cable should be dressed loosely rather than folded into a tight coil.

EX-QSFP-40GE-DAC-1.5M occupies the middle of this family between EX-QSFP-40GE-DAC-1M at 1m (3ft) and JNP-QSFP-DAC-2M at 2m (7ft). It adds 0.5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 0.5m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

This assembly uses 30AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 35mm. 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 intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include SFF-8436, QSFP+ MSA and IEEE 802.3ba. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

A passive DAC has no separate optical conversion stage. Its low-power, low-latency operation is useful for short equipment links, but the assembly must remain within the length and signaling mode accepted by both hosts.

Each EX-QSFP-40GE-DAC-1.5M compatible cable is powered up on a suitable test interface rather than checked only for continuity. We confirm the expected identification and observe electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Because operating systems can apply different qualification rules by hardware revision, the intended Juniper Networks platform should be included with the order.

When ordering, specify EX-QSFP-40GE-DAC-1.5M, cable length 1.5m (5ft) 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.

Every EX-QSFP-40GE-DAC-1.5M compatible assembly undergoes link testing, compatibility verification and visual inspection. The 1.5m (5ft) cable is coiled without exceeding its minimum bend radius, fitted with connector protection and packed in an anti-static bag or protective tray before cartoning. Project labels and packing lists are available for volume orders.

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days. Worldwide courier, air freight and sea freight options are available, and shipments can also be sent on your own courier account or delivered to an appointed forwarder.
