QSFP-4SFP10G-CU5M Optical Transceiver Module 4xSFP10G Passive Copper Splitter Cable

The QSFP-4SFP10G-CU5M is a passive copper breakout cable designed for high-speed data transmission in networking environments. Here are the key features and specifications:

Key Features

• Connector Type:

  • QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) on one end and four SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable) connectors on the other.

• Data Rate:

  • Supports data rates of up to 10 Gbps per channel, enabling a total aggregate bandwidth of 40 Gbps.

• Length:

  • Typically available in lengths of 5 meters, suitable for short-distance connections within racks or between adjacent racks.

• Passive Cable:

  • No need for external power; passive cables rely on the electrical signaling for data transmission.

• Compatibility:
