Tripp Lite's 1m QSFP+ (QSFP Plus) 40GBASE-CR4/802.3ba qualified passive copper cable provides next generation performance by combining four 10Gb/s SFP+ channels into one affordable high-density package. QSFP+ cables integrate a new 40G Ethernet-optimized (40GbE) 38-position “board-as-connector” design, with zinc die-cast backshells for superior EMI resistance, minimal insertion loss, and improved cross-talk performance. Cable features 8-pair wire technology optimized for bandwidth-intense applications including 40-Gigabit Ethernet (40GBASE-CR4), 6G SAS, fibre channel and SONET. Flexible 30 AWG conductors maintain a smooth, high-frequency response (20GHz). Each 1m (3.3ft) length QSFP+ cable goes through a rigorous assembly and test procedure aimed at eliminating unnecessary signal loss. Cables are fully compliant to the QSFP+ MSA and SFF-8436 architecture for guaranteed compatibility with all QSFP and QSFP+ ports.
