Description

The HPE X240 40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ 3m direct attach copper cable is a passive twinax assembly that links two 40 Gbps QSFP+ ports over short distances. It suits switch-to-switch, switch-to-server and switch-to-storage connections within a rack or between adjacent racks, and the 3m length gives room to route cable cleanly between neighbouring cabinets.

As a passive copper cable it draws no power of its own, making it a cost-effective alternative to separate optical transceivers and fibre for short-reach 40GbE links. It is listed as a supported option across HPE FlexFabric 5700 and 5900 series switches, and is part of the HPE FlexNetwork (Comware) X240 range.

Features

- Passive copper assembly with no power draw from the cable itself
- Cost-effective short-reach 40G interconnect for switches, servers and storage
- 3m length suits in-rack and adjacent-rack connections
- Listed as a supported option across HPE FlexFabric 5700 and 5900 switch series
