AddOn QFX-QSFP-DAC-2M-AO QSFP+ DAC 2 m

Use copper where optics are unnecessary and keep your 40 GbE links simple. This 2 m passive QSFP+ direct attach cable is built for short-range interconnects in Juniper-oriented environments, where predictable rack-level connectivity matters more than extended reach. Its twinaxial construction supports 40 Gbit/s throughput while avoiding the added cost, power draw, and component count of active transceivers. At 2 m, this cable is well suited to same-rack or adjacent-rack deployments where clean cable management and low-latency connectivity are priorities. The direct attach design helps reduce installation complexity, and the TAA-compliant profile supports procurement requirements in regulated environments. For infrastructure teams standardizing on copper interconnects, passive DAC remains a practical choice: fewer points of failure, lower operational overhead, and a direct path to 40 GbE connectivity. AddOn’s compatibility-focused approach gives you a cable intended for production use, not a generic substitute.
