Panduit F98RP6NQSQNF030 OS2 8F 4:1 CONV MPO-LC 24 BO
Overview
The Panduit F98RP6NQSQNF030 is an OS2 8-fiber, 4:1 conversion cable assembly designed to bridge the gap between 40Gbps QSFP+ optics and 10Gbps SFP+ optics. This assembly is critical for network infrastructure upgrades where you need to transition from higher-speed backbone connections to lower-speed server or switch uplinks without replacing existing optics. It simplifies network design by enabling a direct, passive conversion, reducing the need for intermediate media converters or switch ports.
Compatibility
This cable assembly is engineered for use with standard MPO (Multi-fiber Push-On) connectors on one end and LC connectors on the other. It is specifically designed to support the transition from 40Gbps QSFP+ transceivers (which utilize an MPO-12 connector, with 8 fibers active for 40GBASE-SR4) to four separate 10Gbps SFP+ transceivers (each using an LC duplex connector). It is compatible with any network equipment utilizing these transceiver types, including switches, routers, and NICs from major manufacturers that adhere to industry standards for QSFP+ and SFP+ optics.
Installation Notes
The F98RP6NQSQNF030 features a breakout configuration, with a single MPO connector splitting into four LC duplex connectors. Ensure the MPO connector is clean and properly seated to maintain signal integrity. The cable jacket is rated for plenum spaces, allowing for installation within air-handling spaces without requiring conduit, provided local codes permit. The 24-foot length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or within-rack connections.
