BlueOptics Check Point CPAC-TR-40SPLIT-QSFP-2M compatible BlueLAN QSFP DAC SC253501K2M30

High-density data centers constantly battle to achieve 40 Gigabit throughput without adding power-hungry optics or complex fiber runs. The BlueOptics Check Point CPAC-TR-40SPLIT-QSFP-2M compatible BlueLAN QSFP Direct Attach Cable (DAC) solves this by delivering a passive, low-latency copper link between QSFP ports—no transceivers, no extra power budget, just a reliable 2-meter interconnect that plugs straight into your Check Point switches and routers.

Who is it for

Network engineers and data center operators running Check Point infrastructure who need short-reach, high-bandwidth connections between adjacent racks or within a rack. It is ideal for top-of-rack to server, switch-to-switch, or storage interconnect scenarios where fiber would be overkill and active optics would add cost and heat.

Main features

• 40 Gbps aggregate bandwidth via 4× 10 Gbps lanes, compliant with QSFP MSA SFF-8436.
• Passive copper design: consumes less than 0.5 W, reducing overall power and cooling requirements.
• Check Point vendor coding ensures seamless compatibility with CPAC-TR-40SPLIT-QSFP-2M specified equipment.
• Ultra-low latency for latency-sensitive applications such as high-frequency trading or clustered databases.
• Hot-swappable QSFP connectors allow for quick installation and replacement without downtime.
• 28 AWG wire gauge with PVC jacket balances flexibility and durability for dense cabling.

Tips

For optimal performance, ensure both connected devices support QSFP ports and Check Point coding. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity. This DAC is ideal for short-reach connections within the same rack or adjacent racks; for longer distances, consider active optical cables.
