BlueOptics Ruckus 40G-QSFP-4SFP-PC-0301 Compatible BlueLAN QSFP DAC Cable - 3m

The BlueOptics Ruckus 40G-QSFP-4SFP-PC-0301 Compatible BlueLAN QSFP DAC Cable is a high-performance direct attach copper (DAC) breakout cable designed for 40 Gigabit Ethernet networks. It provides a reliable and cost-effective solution for connecting QSFP+ ports to four SFP+ ports in data centers, high-performance computing (HPC) environments, and enterprise networks.

Advantages

This passive twinax copper cable offers low power consumption (<0.5W) and hot-pluggable convenience, ensuring seamless integration without the need for additional power. Its 3-meter length (10 feet) provides flexibility in rack configurations, while the 30 AWG gauge and PVC jacket ensure durability and signal integrity. The breakout configuration (1x 40GbE QSFP+ to 4x 10GbE SFP+) enables efficient aggregation and distribution of network traffic.
