Description
Data Transfer Rates
The QSFP-H40G-AOC3M= Cisco 3M 40 Gigabit Active Optical Cable (AOC) supports data transfer rates of up to 40 Gigabits per second (Gbps), making it ideal for high-speed data center applications.
The QSFP-H40G-AOC3M= uses four 10 Gbps channels to achieve a total data transfer rate of 40 Gbps. This high-speed data transfer capability is made possible by the use of advanced optical technologies that allow for the transmission of large amounts of data over relatively short distances.
It is worth noting that the actual data transfer rate achieved by the QSFP-H40G-AOC3M= may be affected by factors such as cable length, the quality of the optical components, and the condition of the data center environment. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the cable is installed and maintained correctly to ensure optimal performance.
Regulatory and Compliance Information
The QSFP-H40G-AOC3M= Cisco 3M 40 Gigabit Active Optical Cable complies with several regulatory and compliance standards, including:
- RoHS: The cable is compliant with the European Union’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, which restricts the use of certain hazardous substances in electronic and electrical equipment.
- REACH: The cable is also compliant with the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulation, which aims to protect human health and the environment from the risks posed by chemicals.
- TAA: The cable complies with the Trade Agreements Act (TAA), which requires that products purchased by the U.S. government are made in the United States or in designated countries that have a free trade agreement with the United States.
- FCC: The cable complies with the regulations set forth by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States.
- CE: The cable also complies with the CE Marking requirements, which indicate that the product meets certain safety, health, and environmental protection standards for products sold within the European Economic Area.
In addition to these standards, the QSFP-H40G-AOC3M= cable may also comply with other industry-specific regulations or standards, depending on its intended use and application.
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Maintenance and troubleshooting of the QSFP-H40G-AOC3M= Cisco 3M 40 Gigabit Active Optical Cable (AOC) are essential to ensure that the cable continues to provide reliable and high-performance operation. Here are some tips for maintaining and troubleshooting the QSFP-H40G-AOC3M=:
Maintenance:
- Properly handle and store the cable: When handling the cable, it is important to avoid bending or twisting it excessively, as this can damage the optical fibers inside. Additionally, the cable should be stored in a clean and dry environment to prevent contamination or damage.
- Inspect the cable periodically: Inspect the cable periodically for signs of damage or wear, such as cracks or kinks in the outer jacket or connectors. If any damage is found, the cable should be replaced immediately to prevent further damage.
- Keep the cable clean: Dust or debris can accumulate on the connectors or the ends of the cable, which can impair the signal quality. Clean the cable and connectors regularly using a lint-free cloth or specialized cleaning kit to maintain signal quality.
Troubleshooting:
- Check the cable connection: If you are experiencing issues with the cable, the first step is to check the cable connection. Ensure that the cable is properly plugged in, and the connectors are clean and undamaged.
- Check for signal loss: Use a power meter or optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) to measure the signal strength at different points along the cable. If significant signal loss is detected, this may indicate a problem with the cable or connectors.
- Check for compatibility issues: Ensure that the QSFP-H40G-AOC3M= is compatible with the devices it is being used with. Some devices may require specific cables or configurations to function correctly.
