Keep high-speed links stable across short interconnect runs with this AddOn Networks compatible 40GBASE-SR4 active optical cable. Built for QSFP+ environments, it provides a 3 m connection from a QSFP+ port to 8 LC fiber terminations, making it a practical fit for top-of-rack switching, aggregation layers, and tightly packed data center rows. This cable is designed for teams that need predictable 40 GbE transport without the bulk and bend-radius concerns of longer copper assemblies. The active optical design helps preserve signal integrity across the link while supporting cleaner cable management in dense racks. TAA compliance also makes it suitable for procurement workflows that require sourcing alignment for public sector and regulated enterprise deployments. Choose this model when you need a direct replacement or expansion path for Cisco-compatible infrastructure and want a cable that fits the operational realities of production networks: limited space, short reach, and the need for consistent throughput between adjacent devices.
