H3C QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M Compatible 40G QSFP+ Active Optical Cable, 2m (7ft)

Use the QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M compatible assembly where a 40G connection is required between compatible ports. This page covers the 2m (7ft) version only, with its own HT part number, specifications and compatibility verification.

OEM Part Number: QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2MHT Part Number: QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to H3C QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M
• 40G connectivity at 40Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 2m (7ft), QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M
• 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 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.

QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M provides 2m (7ft) for connections between separated rack units or nearby equipment positions. Plan the route around cable managers and power cords, keeping the assembly free from connector strain while avoiding a large obstruction in the airflow path.

QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M occupies the middle of this family between QSFP-40G-D-AOC-1M at 1m (3ft) and QSFP-40G-D-AOC-3M at 3m (10ft). It adds 1m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 1m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

The HT cable carries the compatibility configuration associated with QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M, while its mechanical assembly remains the fixed 2m (7ft) version described here. Incoming inspection, connector examination and a live link test are completed before packing. Customers with unusually old or new H3C software can request a pre-order check.

This product is ordered as QSFP-40G-D-AOC-2M in 2m (7ft). 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.

Quality control includes connector appearance, cable identification and functional verification. Packing materials are selected to keep the connector housings and cable boots from taking impact during transport, and the coil is not compressed into an undersized bundle. Volume orders can include customer-specific labels and packing documentation.

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.
