Description
The Cisco QSFP-4X10G-AOC10M is a 40-Gigabit active optical breakout cable designed to connect a single QSFP+ 40G port to four SFP+ 10G ports over a 10-meter distance. This active optical cable provides a lightweight, low-power, and flexible alternative to copper breakout cables, making it ideal for high-density data center and enterprise networking environments.
Engineered for reliable short-reach connectivity, this cable reduces cable bulk, improves airflow, and eliminates electromagnetic interference. It is fully hot-swappable and optimized for seamless integration with Cisco 40G and 10G network platforms, supporting efficient port breakout and simplified network expansion.
