To enable very high-speed fiber and long-distance connections on the switch, port cards with Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (QSFP+) fiber ports accommodate standard 40G transceiver modules (gigabit interface converters, or GBICs), break-out cables, and direct attach cables (DACs), which are sold separately from the port cards.
At this time, NETGEAR does not offer any QSFP+ transceiver modules or cables. However, you can obtain any third-party, IEEE-compliant, 40GBASE-X transceiver module or cable for use with the switch.
For a list of modules and cables that are tested and confirmed to work with the APM402XL module, see Which 40G modules and cables has NETGEAR cleared to work with the APM402XL?.
