## Long description

The BlueOptics 470-ABXQ-BL passive Direct Attach Breakout cable is engineered for high-speed network connections in modern data centers and enterprise environments. Featuring a length of 2 meters, this twinax copper cable connects one QSFP interface to four SFP+ interfaces, allowing efficient data transmission between compatible switches, routers, and servers over short distances. Its durable black design ensures tidy cable management within server racks.
Advantages
This Direct Attach Cable provides a cost-effective and reliable alternative to optical transceivers for short-range interconnections within racks or across adjacent racks. By utilizing passive copper technology, it eliminates the need for active power consumption, resulting in lower operational overhead and reduced heat generation. The robust construction adheres to MSA standards, ensuring seamless interoperability across various standard networking hardware platforms.
Suitable for
Connecting a 40G QSFP switch port to four 10G SFP+ server ports
High-density data center rack and cabinet cabling
Enterprise networking environments requiring reliable short-distance transmission
Linking network switches, routers, and storage systems
When it may not be suitable
This passive breakout cable is not designed for long-distance data transmissions exceeding two meters. It cannot be used to bridge network equipment located in separate rooms or non-adjacent racks where optical fiber cables or active optical assemblies are required.
Key specifications
Cable type: DAC twinax copper
Cable length: 2 m
Connector 1: QSFP
Connector 2: 4x SFP+
Data transfer rate: up to 40 Gbit/s
Product colour: Black
How to use
To install the BlueOptics Direct Attach Breakout cable, ensure that both connected network devices are powered off or properly configured to handle hot-swappable interface connections. Gently insert the QSFP connector into the 40G port of the primary switch until it clicks securely into place. Next, plug each of the four SFP+ connectors into the 10G ports of the target servers or secondary switches. Ensure that the cable routing does not exceed its minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity.
What to consider before purchase
Verify that your networking hardware supports QSFP to 4x SFP+ breakout configurations
Confirm that the required connection distance does not exceed the two-meter cable length
Check device compatibility to ensure smooth integration with your existing infrastructure
Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the physical connections and ensure adequate airflow within the rack to maintain optimal operating conditions for your passive copper cabling infrastructure.
