Cavo CBO MC2206130-002-BL 2m QSFP connettore maschio-maschio 40 Gbit/s

Direct-attach CBO Cable MC2206130-002-BL is a 2 m QSFP male-to-male assembly that supports 40 Gbit/s links for short-reach high-speed interconnects. The cable provides a fixed, low-latency connection between QSFP ports on switches, routers, and network interface cards without the need for separate transceivers, simplifying installation and reducing component count in data center and rack environments.

Advantages

This QSFP male-to-male assembly delivers 40 Gbit/s throughput over a 2 m length while maintaining low latency and consistent signal integrity. The direct-attach design eliminates external transceivers, which reduces power consumption and simplifies cable management. Robust connector housings and controlled impedance construction help ensure reliable performance in dense networking setups and repeated mating cycles.

Suitable for

• Short-reach interconnects between top-of-rack and spine switches
• Direct links between routers, switches and QSFP-enabled NICs
• High-density network racks in data centers and server rooms
• Low-latency connections for virtualization and storage networks

Key specifications

• Data rate: 40 Gbit/s
• Connector type: QSFP male-to-male
• Cable length: 2 m
• Application: short-reach direct-attach copper/fixed assembly
• Latency: fixed low-latency physical connection (no transceiver conversion)
• Compatibility: QSFP port interfaces on switches, routers and NICs

How to use

Power down or follow hot-plug guidelines of your network equipment, if applicable. Align each QSFP connector with the corresponding port and insert until the latch engages to ensure a secure connection. Verify link status through the device management interface or indicator LEDs. To remove, depress the latch mechanism and pull the connector straight out to avoid damage. No separate transceiver installation is required.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term operation, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain, maintain recommended bend radius for QSFP assemblies, and keep connectors free of dust. Use the cable within typical data center ambient conditions and verify compatibility with device QSFP firmware or port specifications before deployment.
