QSFP-4X10G-AOC1M — QSFP+ 40 Gbps

The QSFP-4X10G-AOC1M from Cisco is the shortest active optical cable (AOC) in its category, in QSFP+ format, routing 40 Gbps distributed across four SFP+ 10 Gbps ports over just 1 metre. Its active optical technology ensures clean transmission even in electrically noisy environments, with a temperature range of 0 to 70°C.

This SKU targets highly space-constrained intra-rack deployments where every centimetre matters, for example to connect a QSFP+ spine switch to servers fitted with SFP+ 10G ports housed in the same rack. The QSFP-4X10G-AOC1M is the natural AOC choice for 1-metre runs, setting it apart from the 2 m and longer versions in the series. Genuine Cisco hardware, manufacturer warranty.
