Description

The Cisco QSFP-4SFP10G-CU5M is a 40 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (QSFP+) to 4x SFP+ breakout cable. It is a passive copper DAC designed for short-distance, high-speed data communication applications within data centers and enterprise networks. The breakout cable features a single QSFP+ connector on one end and four SFP+ connectors on the other end. This allows for the connection of a 40GbE QSFP+ port to four 10GbE SFP+ ports. The passive copper construction eliminates the need for external power, making it a cost-effective and low-power solution. Here are some key benefits of the Cisco QSFP-4SFP10G-CU5M: Cost-effective: Compared to fiber optic transceivers, DACs are generally less expensive. Low-power consumption: Passive DACs do not require additional power to operate. Hot-swappable: The module can be inserted and removed from a live system without interrupting network traffic. Easy to install: DACs are simple to install and require no configuration.
