Applications
The 40G QSFP+ to 4 x 10G SFP+ Passive Breakout DAC, 1m (3ft) connects QSFP+ to 4 SFP+ ports at 40Gbps in 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments. This unit is made in 7 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 7m (23ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. 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-4SFP10G-CU1M.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with SFF-8436, SFF-8431 and QSFP+ MSA. It is interoperable with Cisco equipment and serves as a direct equivalent to the Cisco part number QSFP-4SFP10G-CU1M.
Ordering Information
The part number for this assembly is QSFP-40G-4SPC01. We offer this cable in 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 4m (13ft), 5m (16ft) and 7m (23ft). Other lengths can be custom manufactured on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Quality Assurance
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
How We Pack
Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.
Custom-made Fiber Products
As a manufacturer serving the fiber optic industry since 1995, we have strong in-house manufacturing and design capability. From early GBIC, Xenpak and X2 modules to today's SFP, SFP+, QSFP, QSFP-DD and OSFP products, we grow together with the industry. OEM and custom-designed transceivers and cables are welcome, and our factory-direct pricing is very competitive compared with online retail stores.
How We Ship
Most orders travel by international express and arrive within days; palletized freight by air or sea is used for volume orders. If you prefer, we ship on your DHL, UPS or FedEx account, or deliver to your appointed agent in China for onward consolidation.
