Aruba X240 40G QSFP+ 1 m DAC Cable

Maintain tight, high-speed interconnects in dense network racks with the Aruba X240 40G QSFP+ QSFP+ 1 m Direct Attach Copper Cable. This cable is designed for short-reach 40 GbE connections where optical transceivers are unnecessary and cable runs need to stay compact, predictable, and cost-conscious. At 1 m, it is well suited for top-of-rack and adjacent-device links, helping reduce excess slack and simplify airflow management inside the cabinet. Direct attach copper also removes the need for separate transceivers at both ends, which can reduce complexity in deployments that prioritize straightforward, in-rack connectivity. For infrastructure teams standardizing on Aruba networking, this cable fits naturally into environments that need dependable 40 GbE interconnects without overbuilding the link. It is a practical choice for switch stacking, short server uplinks, and other close-proximity connections where signal integrity and cable discipline are part of the design standard.
