    Overview

    Cisco QSFP-H40G-AOC2M Overview

    The Cisco QSFP-H40G-AOC2M is an active optical QSFP cable designed for high-density 40 Gbps data center and enterprise switching environments. This 2m 40GBase-AOC link delivers reliable short-reach connectivity with ultra-low 1.5W power consumption per end, helping North American, European, Asian, and African networks reduce energy costs. Its robust temperature range from 0 to 70°C and compact 13.5 x 18.4 x 72.4mm form factor make it ideal for top-of-rack, spine-leaf, and cluster interconnects where performance, density, and ease of deployment are critical for distributors, integrators, and end users.
