Product Description

This Dell 1M 40GbE to 4x10GbE SFP+ Passive Copper Breakout Cable splits a single 40 Gigabit Ethernet QSFP+ port into four 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ ports. It's commonly used in data center environments where high-speed connectivity needs to be distributed to multiple 10GbE devices without using active components or transceivers.

Built for network administrators managing Dell switches and servers, this cable offers a straightforward way to increase port flexibility and optimize infrastructure without additional power or cooling requirements.

Key Features

  • Allows a single 40GbE port to serve four independent 10GbE links
  • Uses passive copper wiring for direct attach with minimal latency
  • One-meter length ideal for tight rack setups
  • Reduces cabling complexity in dense network configurations
  • Compatible with a range of Dell networking gear supporting QSFP+ and SFP+

This cable is often found in top-of-rack switch deployments and server connections where space and efficiency are priorities. Its passive design keeps power consumption low, making it a practical choice for expanding bandwidth in clustered or virtualized environments.


Use Cases

The Dell 1M 40GbE to 4x10GbE SFP+ Passive Copper Breakout Cable is primarily utilized in high-density networking environments where consolidating multiple 10GbE connections from a single 40GbE port is essential. It is especially beneficial for data centers and enterprise IT infrastructures requiring efficient port utilization and cost-effective connectivity expansion.

How It's Used:

  • Aggregating multiple 10GbE links from a single 40GbE port in data center top-of-rack switch deployments.
  • Expanding network uplink capacity in enterprise server clusters without adding additional switch hardware.
  • Facilitating high-throughput connectivity in virtualization environments with multiple 10GbE virtual machines.
  • Enabling dense 10GbE connectivity for storage area networks (SAN) within rack-mounted storage arrays.
  • Optimizing network segmentation in campus networks by breaking out 40GbE trunks to multiple 10GbE access points.
  • Supporting edge computing deployments that require flexible, scalable 10GbE connectivity from limited high-speed ports.

This breakout cable streamlines network design by minimizing cabling complexity and power consumption while maximizing port density. Its direct attach nature ensures low latency and reliable performance, aiding organizations in scaling their infrastructure efficiently without compromising on operational throughput.
