<strong>General Information</strong> <br /> <ul> <li><p><b>Cisco QSFP to Four SFP+ Active Optical Breakout Cables</b></p> <p>Cisco QSFP to four SFP+ Active Optical breakout cables (Figure 4) are suitable for very short distances and offer a flexible way to connect within racks and across adjacent racks. Active optical cables are much thinner and lighter than copper cables, which makes cabling easier. AOCs enable efficient system airflow and have no EMI issues, which is critical in high-density racks. These breakout cables connect to a 40G QSFP port of a Cisco switch on one end and to four 10G SFP+ ports of a Cisco switch on the other end. Cisco currently offers active optical breakout cables in lengths of 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, and 10 meters.</p></li> </ul> <p></p> <strong>Technical Information</strong> <br /> <ul> <li>Cable Type: Fiber Optic</li> <li>Cable Length: 32.81 ft</li> <li>Connector on First End: 1 x QSFP Male Network</li> <li>Connector on Second End: 4 x SFP+ Male Network</li> <li>Features: Flexible</li> <li>Features: Active</li> <li>Device Supported: Network Device</li> <li>Device Supported: Switch</li> <li>Device Supported: Router</li> </ul> <p></p> <strong>Physical Characteristics</strong> <br /> <ul> <li>Color: Red Pull Tab</li> </ul>
