Mellanox’s 40GbE passive copper cables provide robust connections for leading edge 40Gb/s systems. 
Passive copper cables require no additional power to ensure quality connectivity. The 40Gb/s passive 
copper cables are compliant with SFF-8436, QSFP+, specifications and provide connectivity between 
devices using QSFP ports. 40Gb/s passive copper cables fill the need for short, cost-effective connectivity 
in the data center. Mellanox’s high-quality passive copper cable solutions provide a power-efficient 
replacement for active power connectivity such as fiber optic cables. 
Optimizing systems to operate with Mellanox’s 40Gb/s passive copper cables significantly reduces 
power consumption and EMI emission, eliminating the use of EDC hosts.
