Active Optical Cable QSFP+ DeLOCK 84054 10 m Male/Male

The Active Optical Cable QSFP+ DeLOCK 84054 10 m is a duplex fibre optic assembly with QSFP+ male connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed data transmission in network environments. It connects devices such as switches, servers and storage equipment with QSFP+ ports and supports aggregated data rates up to 40 Gbps. The cable’s lightweight, flexible construction simplifies routing and installation in dense racks and short-distance links.

Advantages

The cable provides low-latency, high-bandwidth links over a 10 m distance while reducing electromagnetic interference compared with copper counterparts. Its active optical design enables reliable 40 Gbps transmission with lower power consumption at the transceiver level, and the QSFP+ male connectors ensure compatibility with standard QSFP+ ports on networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting two Ethernet switches with QSFP+ ports
• Linking switches to servers or storage systems supporting QSFP+
• Short-reach 40 Gbps interconnects in data centre racks

Key specifications

• Manufacturer: DELOCK
• Model / MPN: 84054
• EAN: 4043619840540
• Connector type: QSFP+ male to QSFP+ male
• Length: 10 m
• Data rate: up to 40 Gbps
• Cable type: active optical cable (fibre)

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible QSFP+ ports and support the intended data rate. Route the cable without sharp bends and insert each QSFP+ male connector firmly into the corresponding port until it latches. Verify link status on the connected devices and configure network interfaces as required by your equipment. For removal, press the connector latch (if present) and withdraw the plug straight out to avoid damaging the transceiver or port.

Recommendations

Store and operate the cable within the manufacturer’s specified temperature and humidity ranges, avoid tight bends below the minimum bend radius, and keep connectors covered when not in use to prevent contamination. Use the cable for short-reach 40 Gbps links as intended and verify firmware and driver compatibility on networking devices if link negotiation issues occur.
