FAQ
The 40G QSFP+ to 4x SFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC) is designed to deliver high-speed data transmission by breaking out a single 40G QSFP+ port into four independent 10G SFP+ connections. With a length of 10 meters, this cable provides an ideal solution for short- to medium-distance interconnects within data centers, server rooms, and high-performance computing environments.
Built with integrated optical transceivers, this AOC offers superior signal integrity, low latency, and reduced power consumption compared to traditional copper cables. Its lightweight and flexible construction also simplifies cable management, making installation faster and more efficient while maintaining reliable network performance.

Q1: What is the main function of this breakout AOC cable?
A: It converts one 40G QSFP+ port into four separate 10G SFP+ channels, enabling flexible network configurations and efficient port utilization.
Q2: How does an active optical cable differ from a passive copper cable?
A: Active optical cables use built-in optical components to transmit data over fiber, offering longer reach, lighter weight, and better signal performance than copper cables.
Q3: Is this cable compatible with all switches and servers?
A: It is compatible with most mainstream brands, but device compatibility should be verified based on specific vendor requirements or coding.
Q4: Can the cable length be customized?
A: Yes, FiberMania supports customized lengths to meet different installation needs.
Q5: Does this product require additional power supply?
A: No external power is needed, as the cable draws power directly from the connected devices.
