Know before you buy
Active DAC cables include built-in signal processing circuitry within the connectors. This boosts the signal to ensure data integrity over the full 7-meter length, which is necessary because passive copper cables typically experience significant signal degradation at distances beyond 5 meters.
Yes, this cable is specifically programmed to be compatible with Juniper Networks equipment, including the JNP-QSFP-DAC-7MA standard. It is designed to function as a direct, plug-and-play replacement for the original manufacturer's cable.
This cable is a more cost-effective and power-efficient solution for short-to-medium range connections within a rack or between adjacent racks. Unlike optical transceivers, it does not require separate fiber optic patch cables, simplifying your physical cable management.
Yes, this product is both TAA (Trade Agreements Act) and MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compliant. This ensures it meets the necessary standards for use in government projects and maintains interoperability with standard QSFP+ ports.
AddOn provides a lifetime warranty for this cable. This covers defects in materials and workmanship, offering long-term peace of mind for your network infrastructure.
