Connectivity and compatibility

This cable is designed to integrate seamlessly with high-speed networking equipment that uses QSFP+ and QSFP28 transceivers. It connects a single 40Gb MTP port to four separate 10Gb LC duplex ports, making it ideal for aggregating multiple 10Gb devices into a 40Gb backbone. The compatibility with both 40GBASE-SR4 and 100GBASE-SR4 standards ensures it can support current and future network upgrades without requiring new cabling.

Installation and setup

The cable’s slim uniboot design helps reduce clutter and makes routing easier in dense patch panels or rack environments. Push/pull tabs allow quick and secure connections or disconnections with one hand, which is especially useful in tight spaces or when managing multiple cables. The plenum-rated jacket provides peace of mind for installations in air-handling spaces, meeting strict fire safety codes without compromising performance.

Ideal uses and environments

This fiber optic cable is well suited for data centers, enterprise networks, and any high-density environment where fast and reliable 40Gb connections are required. Network administrators and IT professionals will appreciate its ability to simplify complex cabling setups by aggregating multiple 10Gb links into a single 40Gb port. Its fire-safe jacket and easy handling features make it a strong choice for installations in commercial buildings and other spaces with strict safety regulations.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
