The FS Q-4SAO02 2M (7FT) 40G QSFP+ TO 4X 10G SFP+ Breakout Active Optical Cable is a type of high-speed interconnect designed for data centers and other high-performance networking environments. Here's a breakdown:

• Functionality:

  • Breaks out a single 40Gb/s QSFP+ connection into four independent 10Gb/s SFP+ connections.
  • Active Optical: Uses optical signals for data transmission, offering higher bandwidth and longer reach compared to copper cables.
  • Breakout: Allows flexibility in connecting 40Gb/s equipment to devices with only 10Gb/s interfaces.

• Key Features:

  • QSFP+ Connector: On one end, connects to 40Gb/s QSFP+ ports on switches, routers, or servers.  
  • Four SFP+ Connectors: On the other end, provides four separate 10Gb/s connections for devices with SFP+ ports.
  • 2 Meter (7 Foot) Length: Suitable for short-distance interconnections within racks or between adjacent racks.
  • 40Gb/s Data Rate: Supports high-speed data transmission for demanding applications.

• Applications:

  • Data Center Interconnects: Connecting servers, switches, and storage devices within a data center.
  • High-Performance Computing (HPC): Interconnecting nodes in HPC clusters.
  • Network Upgrades: Migrating from 10Gb/s to 40Gb/s while utilizing existing 10Gb/s infrastructure.

In essence, this cable provides a cost-effective and flexible way to utilize 40Gb/s infrastructure while still supporting existing 10Gb/s devices.
