1 m, 3 m, 5 m 40 Gbps Direct Attach Cable and
40 Gbps to 4 x 10 Gbps breakout DAC cable
ET6402-DAC-xM and ET6402-10DAC-xM
The ET6402-DAC-xM is a 1~5m short passive copper direct attach cable with one QSFP+ to one QSFP+ 40G
connectors. The ET6402-10DAC-xM is a 1~5m short passive fan-out copper direct attach cable with one QSFP+
connector and four SFP+ 10G connectors. The QSFP+ cable assemblies are high-performance, cost-effective I/O
solutions for 40G Ethernet and 40G Fibre Channel applications. The QSFP+ copper modules allow hardware
manufactures to achieve high port density, configurability and utilization at a very low cost and reduced power
budget. The high-speed cable assemblies meet and exceed Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel industry-standard
requirements for performance and reliability.
