QSFP+ Passive Copper allows 10Ge fiber connections

I simply daisy chain two MXL blades to create one logical switch that can be managed as one unit. In a typical scenario, VLT can then be employed from two ToR switches down to the MXL stack using the two free fixed 40GbE ports; however, I do not demonstrate this VLT configuration here.  The ‘fortyGigE 0/33′ port on each switch is connected to the other via a 40 GbE QSFP+ Passive Copper allows 10Ge fiber connections connections in a single plug switch-side with a split tail host-side. That is 1 cable for 2x 10Ge drops from host to switch.  That just cut a typical cabling load in the rack in 1/2.  Choose QSFP+ Passive Copper for even more affordable cabling! Did someone say  fill the need for short cost-effective connectivity in the data center. Mellanoxs high-quality passive copper cable solutions provide a power-efficient replacement for active power connectivity such as cables are used for 40GbE and Infniband standards to maximize performance.
