Cable de conexión directa QSFP CBO AA1404029-E6-NT-BL 1 m, conector–conector QSFP, 40 Gbit/s

Direct-attach CBO QSFP cable AA1404029-E6-NT-BL, 1 m length, is a passive copper interconnect with QSFP male-to-male connectors supporting 40 Gbit/s. It is designed for short-reach, high-speed links between compatible QSFP ports in switches, servers and network appliances, providing a compact and low-latency connection for rack-level and data center topologies. The cable is intended for use where a reliable, low-cost physical link is required for 40 Gigabit Ethernet and similar protocols that operate over QSFP copper assemblies.

Advantages

The cable delivers a direct 40 Gbit/s connection with minimal insertion loss and very low latency compared to optical transceivers and fiber assemblies for short distances. Its one-meter length reduces excess slack in rack environments and simplifies cable management. QSFP male-to-male termination ensures compatibility with standard QSFP ports and offers a fixed, maintenance-free connection without the need for separate transceivers.

Suitable for

• Top-of-rack and end-of-row switch interconnects
• Server-to-switch high-speed links within the same rack
• Short-distance patching in data center and telecom racks
• High-throughput appliance interconnections that accept QSFP copper assemblies

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male–male
• Data rate: 40 Gbit/s
• Length: 1 m
• Cable type: Direct-attach copper (passive)
• Typical use: Short-reach, rack-level interconnect

How to use

Insert each QSFP male connector firmly into the corresponding QSFP port on your devices until the latch engages. Verify link status on connected equipment and ensure both ports are configured for 40 Gbit/s operation if necessary. Avoid sharp bends and do not exceed the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. For hot-pluggable systems, follow the host equipment guidance for insertion and removal to prevent port damage.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m QSFP direct-attach cable for short, fixed connections inside racks where a low-latency, cost-effective 40 Gbit/s link is required. Keep the cable routed to minimize strain on connectors, check compatibility with QSFP ports on both ends, and avoid electromagnetic interference by routing away from high-power cabling where possible.
