40G Active Optical Cable (AOC) QSFP+ to QSFP+ OM3 Cable

SVNK 40G QSFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC)

The SVNK 40G QSFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC) is a high-performance, low-power optical interconnect solution designed to support 40G Ethernet and InfiniBand SDR/DDR/QDR applications in modern data centers and high-performance computing environments.

Compliant with the QSFP+ MSA and IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-SR4, this AOC integrates four 10Gb/s channels into a single lightweight OM3/OM4 multimode fiber cable, delivering an aggregate bandwidth of up to 40Gb/s. By combining factory-terminated QSFP+ modules with an embedded optical engine, SVNK AOCs eliminate the need for separate transceivers and MPO patch cords, simplifying installation while improving system reliability.

Built using advanced COB (Chip-on-Board) packaging technology, the SVNK 40G QSFP+ AOC features a compact, highly integrated optical engine with 850nm VCSEL transmitters and PIN photodetectors, enabling excellent signal integrity, reduced power consumption, and lower overall system cost. Its thin, flexible cable construction improves airflow and cable management in high-density racks.

The SVNK 40G QSFP+ AOC is an ideal solution for large-scale data centers, cloud infrastructure, enterprise networks, and HPC systems that demand reliable, short-reach, high-speed connectivity.
