QSFP+ to SFP+-40G-DAC-7M23FT 40G QSFP+ to 1 x 10G SFP+ Passive Copper Cable, 7m (23ft)

QSFP+ to SFP+-40G-DAC-7M23FT 40G QSFP+ to 1 x 10G SFP+ Passive Copper Cable, 7m (23ft)

The HT-manufactured QSFP+ to SFP+-40G-DAC-7M23FT compatible cable provides 40G connectivity for multi-vendor equipment. This 7m (23ft) 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.

Power and Thermal Planning

The rated power consumption is 0.1W Per End. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

Length Selection and Installation Planning

The extended 7m (23ft) 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 DAC construction avoids a chain of separate modules and patch leads.

Position Within the Length Range

QSFP+ to SFP+-40G-DAC-7M23FT is the longest of 6 verified length options in this family. Compared with QSFP+ to SFP+-40G-DAC-5M16FT at 5m (16ft), it provides 2m 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.

Cable Construction and Routing

This assembly uses 26AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 28mm. 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.

Network and Protocol Considerations

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include SFF-8636, SFF-8472. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Passive Copper Operation

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.

Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing

The HT cable carries the compatibility configuration associated with QSFP+ to SFP+-40G-DAC-7M23FT, while its mechanical assembly remains the fixed 7m (23ft) version described here. Incoming inspection, connector examination and a live link test are completed before packing. Customers with unusually old or new Generic software can request a pre-order check.

Ordering Information

When ordering, specify QSFP+ to SFP+-40G-DAC-7M23FT, cable length 7m (23ft) 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this an original equipment manufacturer cable?

No. It is manufactured by HT under our own manufacturer identity.

Are separate optical modules required?

No. The connectors and cable form one complete direct-attach assembly. Do not attempt to detach or replace either end.

Can the cable be folded to shorten its routing path?

No. Follow the specified minimum bend radius and route the 7m (23ft) assembly without tight folds, sharp edges or excessive cable ties.

Can I use it between different speeds or interface types?

Only when both hosts explicitly support the same data rate, lane mapping and breakout configuration. Mechanical fit alone is not proof of interoperability.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

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, QSFP+ to SFP+-40G-DAC-7M23FT and the 7m (23ft) length for easier inventory control.

Shipping and Lead Time

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.
