Frequently Asked Questions
  • What is the Cisco QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M cable?

    The Cisco QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M is a 2-meter Active Optical breakout Cable designed for use in high-performance computing networks. It allows for direct connection between a QSFP+ port and four 10G SFP+ ports.

  • What are the typical use cases for this cable?

    This cable is commonly used in data centers and high-speed networking environments to connect switches, routers, and servers that require a 40G to 4x10G network configuration.

  • What type of connectors does this cable have?

    The cable has one QSFP+ connector on one end and four SFP+ connectors on the other end, enabling a 40G interface to be broken into four 10G interfaces.

  • Is the cable compatible with other manufacturers\' equipment?

    While the cable is optimized for Cisco equipment, it is generally compatible with any manufacturers\' devices that support 40GBase-AOC QSFP and 10G SFP+ standards. However, it is recommended to verify compatibility before deployment.

  • What are the benefits of using an active optical cable (AOC) like the QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M?

    Active Optical Cables offer several benefits, including higher bandwidth, lower transmission loss, lighter weight, and greater distance capabilities compared to traditional copper cables. They are also less susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI).

  • How long is the Cisco QSFP-4X10G-AOC2M cable?

    This model is 2 meters in length, making it suitable for short-range connections within a rack or between nearby racks in a data center.

  • Do I need any additional equipment or configuration to use this cable?

    No additional equipment is required. Once connected, the cable should function seamlessly if both ends are properly connected to compatible devices. Ensure that the devices’ firmware and software support the cable\'s specifications.
