QSFP-4X10G-AOC5M — QSFP+ 40 Gbps

The QSFP-4X10G-AOC5M from Cisco is a QSFP+ breakout AOC assembly, distributing 40 Gbps to four SFP+ 10 Gbps interfaces over a length of 5 metres. Active optical fibre guarantees signal-loss-free transmission in the presence of electrical interference, within a thermal range of 0 to 70°C.

At 5 metres of reach, this pre-terminated cable suits short inter-rack connections where copper DAC no longer delivers optimal performance. The QSFP-4X10G-AOC5M sits within the Cisco AOC series between the 3 m and 7 m versions, offering a length-to-flexibility trade-off suited to scale-out datacenter infrastructures. Genuine Cisco hardware, manufacturer warranty.
