Ficer FAOC-40G-QPSP-010 10 Meter OM3 Multi-Mode AOC Cable

Product Description

Ficer FAOC-40G-QPSP-010 10 Meter OM3 Multi-Mode AOC Cable

High-speed data centers and enterprise networks depend on clean signal delivery, predictable latency, and scalable architecture. The Ficer FAOC-40G-QPSP-010 10 Meter OM3 Multi-Mode AOC Cable is built for exactly that purpose, enabling stable 40Gbps breakout connectivity in modern switching environments.

As part of the broader Network And Router ecosystem, this active optical cable is designed to simplify complex uplink scenarios while maintaining efficiency across racks. It also integrates seamlessly with structured cabling strategies commonly supported by Patch Cord category deployments, making it ideal for dense network topologies without excessive power draw.

Designed for High-Density Network Architectures

In modern switching environments, breakout configurations reduce hardware overhead and increase port utilization. This cable supports a 1x 40G QSFP+ to 4x 10G SFP+ architecture, allowing network teams to scale without replacing core switching equipment.

Its OM3 multi-mode fiber construction ensures reliable short-range transmission within data halls, while the 10-meter length provides flexibility for top-of-rack and end-of-row layouts. When paired with compatible switching hardware found in Network Switches category solutions, it delivers consistent throughput under demanding workloads.

Signal Integrity and Performance Consistency

Active Optical Cables are preferred in environments where copper limitations introduce attenuation or electromagnetic interference. This model leverages an 850nm VCSEL array to maintain signal clarity across all four lanes.

To support predictable performance, the cable adheres strictly to IEEE and SFF standards, ensuring interoperability with devices commonly deployed alongside Fiber Optic Cables in enterprise networks.

Key performance advantages include:

• Reduced latency compared to traditional DAC solutions
• Stable power consumption under full load
• Minimal bending radius for tight rack management
• Reliable thermal performance in controlled environments

Operational Efficiency in Enterprise Deployments

Power efficiency is critical in high-density racks. With consumption below 1.5W per QSFP+ end, this cable helps reduce cumulative energy load without compromising bandwidth. This makes it a practical option for environments already optimized around Data Center Accessories that prioritize airflow and thermal balance.

Its operating temperature range supports continuous operation in standard data center conditions, reducing the risk of signal degradation over time. Network administrators benefit from a plug-and-play deployment model that minimizes installation errors and downtime.

Deployment-friendly characteristics include:

• Pre-terminated active optical design
• Lightweight construction for easier cable routing
• Compliance with RoHS for safer installations
• No need for additional transceivers

Compatibility and Network Planning Benefits

Standards compliance is essential when integrating new components into existing infrastructure. This cable supports IEEE 802.3ba and relevant SFF specifications, making it compatible with a wide range of enterprise and hyperscale hardware platforms.

For organizations expanding modular architectures, it fits naturally alongside structured solutions within Enterprise Networking Equipment categories, helping future-proof network investments while keeping upgrade paths flexible.
