3m passive breakout cable connecting 40G QSFP+ to four 10G SFP+ ports for data center racks.
When scaling server density in data center racks, minimizing cabling complexity and power consumption is critical for efficient 10G uplinks. This QSFP+ to SFP+ breakout cable simplifies high-density deployments by converting a single 40G port into four 10G connections without active components.
The QSFP+-SFP+-DAC-3m delivers 4 duplex lanes at 10Gbps over a 3-meter length, enabling seamless switch-to-server connectivity. Its all-metal housing ensures superior EMI performance, while hot-pluggable electrical interfaces allow maintenance without downtime. Compliant with SFF-8436 and SFF-8431 standards, it guarantees interoperability in mixed-vendor environments.
Ideal for top-of-rack switching and storage area networks, this passive DAC offers lower latency than optical alternatives. The QSFP+-SFP+-DAC-3m provides a reliable, RoHS-compliant interconnect solution that reduces total cost of ownership for enterprise network infrastructure.
Connects one 40G QSFP+ port to four 10G SFP+ ports for high-density rack deployment.
Passive copper design eliminates active components, reducing power usage and heat generation.
All-metal housing provides enhanced electromagnetic interference shielding for signal integrity.
Supports hot-plugging for easy installation and maintenance without system downtime.
Fully compliant with SFF-8436, SFF-8431, and IEEE 802.3ae/ba standards for interoperability.
