QSFP-4SFP10G-CU3M compatible Cisco 40GBASE-CR4 QSFP to 4 10GBASE-CU SFP+ Direct Attach Breakout Cable

40G QSFP+ to 4xSFP+ Direct Attach Cable Passive Twinax 3m

Cisco compatible QSFP to four SFP+ copper direct-attach breakout cables are suitable for very short distances and offer a very cost-effective way to connect within racks and across adjacent racks. These breakout cables connect to a 40G QSFP port of a Cisco switch on one end and to four 10G SFP+ ports of a Cisco switch on the other end. Cisco currently offers passive cables in lengths of .5, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 meters;

Description

The QSFP-4SFP10G-CU3M is suitable for very short distances and offers a highly cost-effective way to establish a interconnect between the devices using QSFP+ ports and SFP+ ports. The QSFP+ to 4xSFP+ DAC breakout cable is designed for 40Gb/s high-speed interconnecting networking applications such as high-performance computing (HPC), enterprise networking including top-of-rack switching and network storage markets. It fully complies with QSFP+ Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) standards SFF-8436 and SFP+ MSA SFF-8431. This passive DAC cable has no signal amplification built into the cable assembly.

The QSFP-4SFP10G-CU3M DAC copper cable is programmed to be compatible with a wide range of Cisco network equipment for intra-rack connections in data centers such as Ethernet Switches, Routers, Network Interface Cards (NICs) and Network Servers. It’s a cost-effective alternative to high-cost Cisco QSFP-4SFP10G-CU3M 40Gb/s QSFP+ 3m DAC breakout cable
