Cables
This adapter feature requires the use of compatible QSFP+, 40 Gbps, copper, twinaxial, active, Ethernet
cables for cabling over short distances. See Figure 46 for different views of the QSFP+ copper cable. For
distances over 5 meters, use two optical QSFP+ SR transceivers (FC EB27) that attach to optical cables FC
EB2J or FC EB2K. See Table 10 for details about the feature codes.
Do not mix copper and optical cables on the same adapter.
These cables are compliant with industry standard specifications SFF-8431 Rev 4.1 and SFF-8472 Rev 10.4,
and all applicable IBM requirements.
Note:
These cables are EMC Class A compliant.
