Applications
The 40G QSFP+ to 4x10G SFP+ Active Breakout DAC, 1m (3ft) is a 40Gbps active copper cable for QSFP+ to SFP+ connections in 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments. This unit is manufactured in 5 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 9m (29ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. Compatibility with Cisco systems is verified in our own test lab before shipment, so the unit works out of the box as an equivalent of QSFP-4X10G-AC1M.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: SFF-8431, SFF-8432, SFF-8472 SFP+ MSA, SFF-8436 QSFP+ MSA. For projects standardized on Cisco hardware, this product replaces the QSFP-4X10G-AC1M directly, with identical fit and function. Every unit's EEPROM coding and link behavior are verified on real host equipment in our lab, so what arrives at your site is ready to use.
