40G QSFP+ AOC network solution
40G QSFP+ AOC network solution
In order to meet the demands of higher bandwidth and interconnection solution, 40 Gigabit Ethernet has become the trend of data transmission. 40G SR4 QSFP+ optical transceiver module is the ideal solution for short-range interconnection in 40G networks, in addition,40G QSFP+ AOC cables are widely used for high-speed transmission for short-distance connections. UTOPTICAL would like to highlight some cost-effective 40G QSFP + AOC cable solutions for network interconnection.
Introduction
The QSFP+ AOC cables consist of QSFP+ optical transceiver modules in both ends and OM3 multimode fiber cable in different cable length from 1 to 100 meters. They offers 4 independent data transmission channels and 4 data receiving channels via the multimode fibers.

Why prefer to use 40G QSFP+ AOC for short-distance connections ?
1. Lower cost
compared to 40G QSFP+ SR4 Transceiver module , the 40G QSFP+ AOC cable saves extra fiber patchcord cables. Therefore , price of 40G QSFP+ AOC is generally lower than that of 40G QSFP+ SR4 transceiver on the market.
2. Low insertion and return loss.
The 40G QSFP+ AOC has no insertion loss and return loss, further ensuring the repeatability and interchangeability performances better than 40G QSFP+ SR4 Transceiver module .
3. Transmission distance
If the distance is less than 100m, the 40G QSFP+ AOC and 40G SR4 QSFP+ modules have the same performance.
4. Installation and Maintenance
The 40G QSFP+ AOC is easier and faster to install and maintain due to factory pre-terminated,
which is used to test the product keeps good performance under the lowest and highest temperature.
Common types of 40G QSFP+ AOC are as follows:
1.40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ AOC Cable
2.40G QSFP+ to 4xSFP+ AOC Cable
3.40G QSFP+ to 8xLC AOC Cable
Summary
40G QSFP+ AOC cables provide an ideal alternative solution to QSFP+ transceivers of short distance, which providing improved signal integrity, exceptional cost and performance value. They are designed expressed for high speed, high density and low power consumption for today’s data center networking applications.
