Intel XLDACBL1 Compatible 40G QSFP+ DAC Cable (1-meter, Passive, QSFP+ to QSFP+, 30AWG)
The 40G QSFP+ passive copper direct-attach cable (DAC) is Intel XLDACBL1 fully compatible. It is a Twinax copper cable with fixed QSFP+ form factor modules terminated on both ends. The Intel compatible 40G QSFP+ DAC cable is verified to interoperate with original NICs, including the Intel Intel XL710-BM1 and Intel XL710-BM2. Given that the QSFP+ is pre-attached to each end, the 40G DAC cable features convenient installation.
QSFP+ to QSFP+ 40G DAC cable is suitable for very short-distance transmission. It provides a cost-effective and low-power consumption way to build a 40Gb link between QSFP ports of switches or routers with racks and across adjacent racks.
