This 5-meter direct attach copper cable converts a single 100Gb QSFP28 interface into four separate 25Gb SFP28 ports. It's commonly used in data centers to split high-bandwidth links into multiple lanes for flexible network configurations. Built for high-speed environments, it supports reliable connections between switches, servers, and storage devices.

Network engineers and IT professionals often rely on this cable to optimize their network infrastructure, especially when they need to manage multiple 25Gb connections from a single 100Gb port. Its copper construction ensures low latency and power savings compared to optical alternatives.

Key Features

• Breaks out one 100Gb QSFP28 port into four 25Gb SFP28 channels
• Durable 5-meter direct attach copper cable reduces signal loss
• Compatible with HPE and other QSFP28/SFP28 enabled devices
• Ensures low latency suitable for high-performance computing
• Plug-and-play design for straightforward deployment

This cable is typically deployed in data center racks where space and performance are key. It helps streamline connections and reduce the need for extra equipment by consolidating multiple lanes into a single cable assembly. In practice, it plays a vital role in managing traffic efficiently across servers and network switches without additional optical transceivers.
