AFBR-7QERxxZ 40 Gigabit Ethernet & InfiniBand QDR QSFP+ Pluggable, Parallel Active Optical Cable Product Brief Description Features The Avago Technologies AFBR-7QERxxZ is a FourChannel, Pluggable, Parallel, Fiber-Optic QSFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC) solution for 40 Gigabit Ethernet Applications. This AOC is a high performance cable for short-range multi-lane data communication and interconnect applications. It integrates four data lanes in each direction with 40 Gbps aggregate bandwidth. Each lane can operate at 10.3125 Gbps. These cables also support 4 x 10 G InfiniBand QDR applications and are backwards compatible to the 4 x 5 G IB DDR and 4 x 2.5 G IB single IB SDR applications. * Compliant to the 40GBASE-SR4 and XLPPI Specification per IEEE 802.3ba-2010 and supporting 40G-IB-QDR/ 20G-IB-DDR/10G-IB-SDR applications These Active Optical Cables operate over multimode fiber systems using a nominal wavelength of 850 nm. The electrical interface uses a 38 contact edge type connector. This AOC incorporates Avago Technologies proven integrated circuit and VCSEL technology to provide reliable long life, high performance, and consistent service. * Compliant to the industry standard SFF-8436 QSFP+ Specification * Power Level 1: Max Power < 1.5 W * High port density: 21 mm horizontal port pitch * Operate at 10.3125 Gbps per channel with 64b/66b encoded data for 40GbE application and at 10 Gbps with 8b/10b compatible encoded data for 40G-IB-QDR application * 0 to 70 C case temperature operating range * Proven High Reliability 850 nm technology: Avago VCSEL transmitter and Avago PIN receiver * Hot pluggable for ease of servicing and installation * Two Wire Serial (TWS) interface Part Number 40 Gigabit Ethernet & InfiniBand QDR AFBR-7QERxxZ 40GbE QSFP+ to 4x 10GbE SFP+ Breakout AOC AFBR-7IERxxZ Where xx = cable length in meters For specifications pertaining to the SFP+ Active Cable-end see AV02-2948EN AFBR-7CERxxZ SFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC) Datasheet Evaluation Board AFBR-79Q4EKZ* Evaluation Kit AFBR-79Q2EKZ** * Includes GUI and User Guide ** Includes GUI, User Guide, i-Port and Power Supply Note: Two evaluation boards are needed in order to run the bi-directional QSFP+ Active Cable Assembly *Utilizes optical fiber for high density and thin, lightweight cable management Applications * 40GbE and 40G-IB-QDR/20G-IB-DDR/10G-IB-SDR interconnects * Datacom/Telecom switch & router connections * Data aggregation and backplane applications * Proprietary protocol and density applications Evaluation Kit Active Optical Cable Block Diagram - Active Components Diagnostic Monitors Dout[3:0][p/n] (8) RX Output Buffer TIA Optical Interface Control Laser Driver 4 PINs SCL SDA ModSelL LPMode ModPresL ResetL IntL 4 VCSELs TX Input Buffer Electrical Interface Din[3:0][p/n] (8) Mechanical Dimensions 97.4 O 3.3 R 35 18.35 18.15 131.75 108.7 71.35 8.5 53 12.38 Key Product Parameters 1.38 Parameter Value Units Notes Data rate per lane 10.3125 10.0 Gbps Gbps Per IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-SR4 standard InfiniBand QDR rate Transceiver Case Operating Temperature 0-70 C Power Supply Voltage 3.3 V Management Interface Two-Wire Serial Per SFF-8436 QSFP+ specification Eye Safety Class 1M Per EN 60825-1:2007 Transceiver Power Consumption <1.5 Electrical Connector 38 contact connector Per SFF-8436 QSFP+ specification Electrical Interface XLPPI High Speed Electrical Per IEEE 802.3ba standard For product information and a complete list of distributors, please go to our web site: W Power Level Class 1 www.avagotech.com Avago, Avago Technologies, and the A logo are trademarks of Avago Technologies in the United States and other countries.
