5m passive breakout cable connecting 40G QSFP+ to four 10G SFP+ ports for data center racks.
When high-density rack interconnects require flexible bandwidth allocation without expensive optical transceivers, passive DAC breakout cables provide the necessary physical layer efficiency. The LRDAC-QSFP+-4SFP+-5M enables seamless migration from 40G uplinks to multiple 10G server connections in storage and switching environments.
This 5-meter passive cable features 4 independent duplex channels operating at 10Gbps each, delivering full 40G aggregate throughput while eliminating active component power draw. Its all-metal housing ensures superior EMI performance, maintaining signal integrity in dense data center deployments where crosstalk causes errors.
Ideal for connecting 40G switches to quad-port 10G NICs or storage arrays, this QSFP+ to 4xSFP+ breakout cable complies with SFF-8436 and IEEE 802.3ae standards. It delivers reliable, low-latency connectivity for enterprise rack-scale networking.
Connects one 40G QSFP+ port to four 10G SFP+ ports for flexible rack cabling.
Passive copper design eliminates active components, reducing power consumption and heat.
All-metal housing provides superior EMI performance for stable signal integrity.
Fully compliant with SFF-8436, QSFP+ MSA, and IEEE 802.3ae specifications.
5-meter length optimized for intra-rack and adjacent rack data center connections.
High-quality optical modules and cables for optimal compatibility with your network adapter.
