The StarTech QSFP4X10AO15 is a 15-meter active optical cable designed to break out a single 40Gbps QSFP+ connection into four independent 10Gbps SFP+ connections. This cable is essential for high-density server aggregation or switch-to-switch uplinks where you need to connect a 40Gbps port to multiple 10Gbps devices, such as servers or network switches. It provides a cost-effective, direct-attach solution that eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords, reducing potential points of failure and simplifying network infrastructure. The QSFP4X10AO15 is specifically designed for compatibility with Cisco equipment, ensuring seamless integration into existing Cisco-based networks.
This cable is engineered for direct compatibility with Cisco QSFP+ ports, enabling a 40Gbps connection to be split into four 10Gbps SFP+ connections. It is suitable for environments utilizing Cisco Nexus, Catalyst, or other switch series that feature QSFP+ ports and require breakout connectivity to SFP+ devices. Verify your network equipment's QSFP+ port specifications to ensure it supports breakout configurations.
The QSFP4X10AO15 operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F), making it suitable for most standard IT environments. Its low power consumption of less than 1.5W means it will not significantly impact your network's power budget. The cable jacket is constructed from durable PVC, offering flexibility and protection for the optical fibers within. Ensure adequate clearance for the QSFP+ and SFP+ connectors during installation to prevent strain on the ports.
