Cisco QSFP-H40G-ACU10M Compatible 40G QSFP+ Active Copper Cable, 10m (33ft)

Designed for hosts that recognize QSFP-H40G-ACU10M, this QSFP+ to QSFP+ cable delivers 40G transmission over a fixed 10m (33ft) assembly. Its ACC construction provides an actively conditioned copper link for the stated high-speed interface.

OEM Part Number: QSFP-H40G-ACU10MHT Part Number: QSFP-H40G-ACU10M

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Cisco QSFP-H40G-ACU10M
• 40G connectivity at 40Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 10m (33ft), QSFP-H40G-ACU10M
• 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 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.

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.

QSFP-H40G-ACU10M is the longest of 2 verified length options in this family. Compared with QSFP-H40G-ACU7M 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.

Each QSFP-H40G-ACU10M 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 Cisco platform should be included with the order.

When ordering, specify QSFP-H40G-ACU10M, cable length 10m (33ft) 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.

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.

Available stock is usually packed and handed to the carrier within one to three working days. Delivery can be arranged by international express, air cargo or sea freight, with tracking details supplied after dispatch. Freight-collect shipments and delivery to a customer warehouse or forwarder can also be coordinated.
