The 40G QSFP+ to 4 x 10G SFP+ Passive Breakout DAC, 1m (3ft) provides a 40Gbps copper connection between QSFP+ to 4 SFP+ ports with a cable length of 1m (3.28ft). As a passive cable it draws essentially no power and adds no latency to the link. Direct attach copper keeps both latency and power consumption to a minimum, which makes it the economical choice for 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments.

Applications
Designed for 40G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 40G QSFP+ to 4 x 10G SFP+ Passive Breakout DAC, 1m (3ft) carries 40Gbps between QSFP+ to 4 SFP+ interfaces. This unit is produced in 7 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 7m (23ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. 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
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the Cisco part QSFP-4SFP10G-CU1M and works in Cisco systems out of the box. Standards compliance covers SFF-8436, SFF-8431 and QSFP+ MSA.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is QSFP-40G-4SPC01. This cable is available in 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 4m (13ft), 5m (16ft) and 7m (23ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Packing Details
Standard packing is an anti-static bag plus blister protection, with cartons sized to keep products from moving in transit. We apply our standard labels by default; neutral packing or customer-branded labels, part number stickers and serial barcodes are all 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.
Delivery
Goods are normally sent by courier such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS; air and sea freight are also available on request. Commonly used items are kept in stock for immediate shipment, and out-of-stock items are usually delivered within a few working days. We can also ship on your courier account or hand goods to your appointed forwarder.
Quality and Testing
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
