Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 40GBase-CU direct attach cable used for?
A 40GBase-CU direct attach cable connects high-speed network equipment over short distances using active copper technology. It's commonly used for data center interconnects, switch-to-server connections, and rack-to-rack networking where 40 Gbps throughput is required without the cost of optical modules.
Is this QSFP+ cable compatible with Juniper equipment?
Yes, the AddOn JNP-QSFP-DACBO-7MA is specifically designed as a Juniper Networks compatible cable. It is programmed and tested to work seamlessly with Juniper switches and routers that support QSFP+ to SFP+ breakout configurations.
What does TAA compliant mean for networking cables?
TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance ensures the cable meets U.S. federal procurement requirements. This certification is essential for government agencies, educational institutions, and organizations subject to federal purchasing regulations.
How far can this active copper cable reach?
This direct attach cable supports a maximum reach of 7 meters, making it suitable for most data center rack configurations and short-distance interconnects where longer distances aren't required.
