Amphenol’s revolutionary 5m (16.4 ft) QSFP to 4 SFP+ Splitter Cable offers IT professionals a cost-effective interconnect solution for merging 40GbE QSFP+ and 10GbE SFP+ enabled host adapters, switches and servers. For typical applications, users can install this splitter cable (a.k.a. “octopus” cable) between an available QSFP/QSFP+ port on their 40-Gigabit/s rated switch and feed up to four upstream 10GbE-SFP+ enabled switches. Each QSFP-SFP+ splitter cable features a single QSFP+ connector (SFF-8436) rated for 40-Gbps on one end and (4) SFP+ connectors (SFF-8431), each rated for 10-Gbps, on the other. Amphenol is the only manufacturer of QSFP to 4 SFP+ Splitter Cables that designs and sources every subassembly in-house – guaranteeing complete control over product performance, quality and consistency. Examples include our use of 30 AWG Amphenol SpectraStrip SKEWCLEAR wire, attaining the industry’s lowest attenuation and skew characteristics; as well as our widely respected “board-as-connector”
