QSFP+ to 4x SFP+ Break Out Cable

This Lenovo cable splits one QSFP+ port into four SFP+ connections using direct-attach copper. It ships new and measures 16.40 ft end to end. The flexible construction eases routing inside dense racks.

Suits admins linking one 40 GbE uplink to four

Builders who need a single SFP+ run or a fibre-based breakout should choose a different cable type. The fixed 16.40 ft length also rules out shorter or longer reach requirements.

16.40 ft direct-attach copper length

The cable reaches 16.40 ft between the QSFP+ switch side and the four SFP+ server or storage ports. Verify that this exact reach matches your rack layout before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the QSFP+ connector or the four SFP+ ends need periodic cleaning or replacement after long-term use?

The passive copper assembly has no moving parts or active components, so no scheduled cleaning or connector replacement is required under normal operation.

What length limit appears first when the cable runs at full speed continuously?

The 16.40 ft length is the fixed reach; signal integrity is guaranteed up to that distance and cannot be extended without an active device.

How much heat or noise does the cable produce when running all day?

As a passive direct-attach copper cable it generates no audible noise and negligible heat, drawing only the tiny leakage current of the transceiver ports.
