## Long description

The Cisco QSFP-H40G-AOC5M= is a 5-meter active optical cable with QSFP+ connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers and high-performance computing environments. It supports InfiniBand and fiber-optic standards and is intended for short-reach connections between switches, servers, and storage equipment within racks or across adjacent racks.
Advantages
This active optical cable provides high bandwidth and low latency suitable for 40 Gbps QSFP+ links. Its pre-terminated QSFP+ connectors simplify installation and reduce connector loss compared with discrete transceiver plus fiber assemblies. The 5 m length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or intra-rack cabling while avoiding the bulk of copper alternatives and reducing electromagnetic interference risks.
Suitable for
Interconnects between QSFP+-equipped switches and servers
High-performance computing clusters using InfiniBand
Top-of-rack to adjacent rack connections in data centers
Short-reach fiber links in storage area networks

How to use
Install the cable by inserting each QSFP+ connector into the corresponding QSFP+ port on two compatible devices, ensuring the connector latch clicks into place. Verify link lights and device diagnostics to confirm a successful optical link. For best results, avoid bending the cable sharply and route it to prevent strain on the connectors. Use device firmware and interface configuration appropriate for 40 Gbps or the InfiniBand link mode required by your network equipment.
Usage recommendations
Handle the QSFP-H40G-AOC5M= by the connector housings, keep dust caps on disconnected ends, and maintain the specified minimum bend radius. Use this AOC for short-reach, high-bandwidth links inside racks or between nearby racks; for longer distances consider fiber transceivers with single-mode or multimode fiber assemblies.
