The 40G QSFP+ Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable remains the backbone of short-range data center connectivity. As enterprises migrate from 10G to higher bandwidths, 40G DACs provide a balance of cost-efficiency and performance for Top-of-Rack (ToR) switching applications.
With the surge in AI-driven workloads and cloud computing, the demand for low-latency high-speed cabling is skyrocketing. Current trends indicate a shift toward 40G to 100G migration, where 40G DACs serve as the critical transition technology for medium-sized enterprises.
International buyers are increasingly focused on multi-vendor compatibility. Procurement teams from North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia seek 40G DAC suppliers who can provide rigorous testing reports and 100% compatibility with brands like Cisco, Arista, and Juniper.
Established in 2012 in Hong Kong as a hi-tech communication enterprise, Kocent Optec Limited is one of China's leading fiber optic termination product manufacturers and solution providers.
We are dedicated to developing and manufacturing fiber optic communication products ranging from passive to active categories for telecommunication networks, enterprise networks, and data centers. Our commitment to excellence ensures that our 40G DAC cables meet the highest industrial standards.
By leveraging our extensive experience and excellent production capacity, we magnify the outcome for our valuable customers, expanding their core competencies and helping them outperform competitors.
As a professional 40G DAC supplier, our expertise extends beyond simple assembly. Understanding the nuances of high-speed signal integrity is what sets our 40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ Passive Direct Attach Copper Cables apart. These cables consist of twinaxial copper cables terminated with QSFP+ connectors on both ends, designed for distances up to 7 meters.
We utilize high-purity silver-plated copper conductors (typically 24AWG to 30AWG) to minimize signal attenuation. This ensures that our 40G DACs maintain 4 independent channels of 10Gbps data traffic without EMI interference.
One of the primary reasons for the 40G DAC's popularity in modern data centers is its near-zero power consumption. Unlike optical transceivers that require power for laser transmission, DACs are passive components, significantly reducing the "Power Usage Effectiveness" (PUE) of data facilities.
For short-reach connections (under 5m), our wholesale 40G DAC pricelist offers a cost reduction of up to 60% compared to using two 40G transceivers and a fiber patch cord. It is the most economical solution for stackable switches.
