The QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= is a Cisco 2M 10Gbps Network Cable that uses Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable (QSFP) connectors and Active Optical Cable (AOC) technology. This cable is designed to connect Cisco networking devices and provides a high-speed, reliable, and secure connection for data transmission.
Here are some ways in which the QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= enhances network security:
- Secure Transmission: The QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= cable uses AOC technology, which uses fiber optic strands to transmit data instead of electrical signals. This makes the transmission of data more secure as fiber optic cables are less susceptible to interference and are difficult to tap or intercept. Additionally, AOC technology uses encryption to secure the transmission of data, further enhancing network security.
- Data Integrity: The QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= cable is designed to ensure the integrity of data being transmitted. The cable has built-in error detection and correction mechanisms that detect and correct any errors in the data. This helps prevent data corruption, which can compromise network security.
- Compatibility: The QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= cable is designed to be compatible with Cisco networking devices, ensuring that it integrates seamlessly with the network. This helps prevent any security vulnerabilities that may arise from using incompatible or non-standard cables.
- Physical Security: The QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= cable is designed to be physically secure. The QSFP connectors are designed to latch securely onto the ports of the networking devices, preventing accidental disconnections or tampering. Additionally, the AOC cable is made of durable materials, making it resistant to damage from physical stress, reducing the risk of accidental damage that could compromise network security.
The QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= is a Cisco 2 meter 40Gbps QSFP+ to 4x 10Gbps SFP+ active optical cable (AOC) designed for high-speed networking applications. It is used to connect QSFP+ and SFP+ ports in data centers and high-performance computing environments.
The cable consists of four parallel fiber optic channels, with each channel transmitting data at a rate of 10Gbps. The QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= uses a QSFP+ connector on one end and four SFP+ connectors on the other end.
The QSFP+ connector is a high-density, 38-pin hot-pluggable transceiver interface used for 40Gbps data transmission. The connector is designed to support various networking protocols, such as Ethernet, Infiniband, and Fibre Channel.
On the other end of the cable, the SFP+ connectors are used to connect to the 10Gbps ports of network switches and servers. The SFP+ connector is a smaller version of the SFP connector and has a data rate of up to 10Gbps.
The QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= cable is an active optical cable, which means it has built-in signal amplification and equalization to overcome signal loss and distortion over long distances. The cable uses VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) and PIN (Positive-Intrinsic-Negative) photodiodes for transmitting and receiving data.
Safety Precautions when Installing for 2M 10GBPS Network CableInstalling the QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= Cisco 2M 10GBPS Network Cable requires proper handling and safety precautions to ensure that the installation process is safe and successful. Here are some safety precautions to consider when installing this network cable:
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions: Make sure to carefully read and follow the manufacturer's instructions when installing the QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= Cisco 2M 10GBPS Network Cable. This will ensure that you are handling the cable in the proper way and that you are not damaging it during installation.
- Wear appropriate protective gear: It is recommended that you wear protective gear such as gloves and safety glasses when handling the network cable. This will protect you from any potential hazards and prevent any injuries that may occur during installation.
- Ensure the installation environment is safe: Make sure that the installation environment is free from any hazards such as wet or slippery surfaces, electrical hazards, or any other potential dangers. This will help prevent any accidents during the installation process.
- Use the proper tools: Make sure to use the proper tools when installing the QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M= Cisco 2M 10GBPS Network Cable. This will help ensure that the cable is properly installed and that you are not damaging it during the process.
- Inspect the cable before installation: Inspect the network cable before installation to make sure that it is not damaged or defective. If you notice any damage or defects, do not use the cable and contact the manufacturer for a replacement.
- Properly route the cable: Make sure to properly route the network cable during installation to prevent any strain or stress on the cable. This will help ensure that the cable functions properly and lasts for a long time.
