The 40G QSFP+ to 4x10G SFP+ Breakout AOC, 1m (3ft) connects QSFP+ to 4 SFP+ ports at 40Gbps over OM3 multimode fiber at 850nm. Because the optics are built into the cable ends, installation is plug and play with no separate transceivers to manage, and airflow inside the rack stays unobstructed. It is well suited to 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments. The standard length range runs from 1m (3ft) to 30m (98ft).

Applications
The 40G QSFP+ to 4x10G SFP+ Breakout AOC, 1m (3ft) connects QSFP+ to 4 SFP+ ports at 40Gbps in 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments. This unit is produced in 10 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 30m (98ft). 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-4X10G-AOC1M.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre Channel. It is interoperable with Cisco equipment and serves as a direct equivalent to the Cisco part number QSFP-4X10G-AOC1M.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is QSFP-40G-4SAO01. This cable is available in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft) and 30m (98ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.
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.
Package
Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.
OEM and Custom Orders
We have manufactured fiber optic connectivity products since 1995 and run our own production lines in Shenzhen. Beyond the standard catalog we build to order: special cable lengths, custom connector combinations, vendor-specific compatibility coding and private labeling. Send us your requirement and our engineers will quote a practical solution.
Logistics
Our warehouse keeps fast-moving transceivers and cables ready for same-week dispatch. Courier, air freight and sea freight options are all available depending on your budget and schedule, and we consolidate multiple items into one shipment whenever it saves you cost.
