Active Optical Cable QSFP+ to 4 x SFP+ 3 m DeLOCK 84058

The DeLOCK Active Optical Cable QSFP+ to 4 x SFP+ 3 m (model 84058, EAN 4043619840588) is a 3‑metre high‑speed fibre optic cable that provides a QSFP+ connector on one end and four SFP+ connectors on the other. It enables direct connection of a device with a QSFP+ port to a switch or the interconnection of two Ethernet switches, offering reliable data transmission for data centre and networking environments with lower power consumption compared to equivalent copper solutions.

Advantages

The cable supports high bandwidth and low-latency transmission over a 3 m distance, reduces electromagnetic interference due to its optical design, and lowers power consumption relative to copper cables. Its QSFP+ to 4×SFP+ breakout configuration provides flexible connectivity for equipment with different transceiver interfaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting a QSFP+ port device to a switch
• Interconnecting two Ethernet switches
• High‑speed links in data centres
• Server-to-switch or switch-to-switch breakout connections

Key specifications

• Manufacturer: DELOCK
• Model / MPN: 84058
• EAN: 4043619840588
• Type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Connectors: QSFP+ to 4 × SFP+

How to use

Insert the QSFP+ connector into the QSFP+ port of the source device and plug the required SFP+ connectors into the target switch ports. Ensure both ends are fully seated and that devices are powered according to their manufacturer instructions. No external power or transceivers are required beyond the ports on the connected equipment; link negotiation and speed settings should be managed by the network devices.

Recommendations

Handle the fibre cable by the connector housings, avoid tight bends (observe the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer), and keep connectors free of dust. Verify compatibility of switch firmware and QSFP+/SFP+ port settings before deployment to ensure proper link formation.
