40GBASE-AOC QSFP+ cable 10m

This Axiom active optical cable provides 40 Gbps connectivity using QSFP+ connectors over a 10 metre run. It is designed for data-centre links between switches, routers and servers that require the reach of fibre without the complexity of separate transceivers and patch cords.

Installation and common issues

The cable arrives pre-terminated with QSFP+ modules on both ends, so installation is a simple plug-and-play process into compatible ports. The most frequent issue is a port-side coding mismatch; the cable carries an application-specific code that must align with the OEM switch or router firmware for the link to come up.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that both host devices support 40GBASE-AOC over QSFP+ and accept third-party coded modules. Confirm the 10 metre length fits the physical routing path between racks or cabinets. Ensure the switch firmware allows the Axiom application-specific code or can be configured to ignore vendor locking.
