Extreme Networks 10GB-4-F01-QSFP Compatible 40G QSFP+ to 4 x 10G SFP+ Active Optical Breakout Cable, 1m (3ft)

The 10GB-4-F01-QSFP cable offers a direct QSFP+ to 4 SFP+ connection at 40Gbps. Its 1m (3ft) length and AOC construction are intended for Extreme Networks equipment, with no separate transceiver-and-patch-cord assembly required.

OEM Part Number: 10GB-4-F01-QSFPHT Part Number: 10GB-4-F01-QSFP

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Extreme Networks 10GB-4-F01-QSFP
• 40G connectivity at 40Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to 4 SFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 1m (3ft), 10GB-4-F01-QSFP
• Minimum bend radius: 30mm

This assembly uses OFNP jacket, minimum bend radius 30mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

The optical engines and fiber are permanently integrated into this AOC. There are no detachable optical modules to clean or exchange. Handle the complete assembly by its connector housings and cable, and keep both ends matched to the same interface specification.

At 1m (3ft), 10GB-4-F01-QSFP is a practical choice for direct connections within one rack. Route the cable along the intended management path rather than pulling it diagonally across adjacent connectors, and leave enough clearance for insertion, removal and front-panel airflow.

10GB-4-F01-QSFP is the shortest of 10 verified length options in this family. It is the preferred choice when the port positions are close and cable slack must be kept to a minimum. The next option is 10GB-4-F02-QSFP at 2m (7ft), adding 1m for a less direct routing path; selecting it unnecessarily would leave more cable to dress.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre Channel. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The QSFP+ to 4 SFP+ configuration divides the high-speed interface into multiple lower-speed connections. Verify the upstream lane assignment, downstream port speeds and breakout setting on the host before connecting the assembly. Each branch must attach to the correct remote interface.

Compatibility is more than matching the QSFP+ to 4 SFP+ shape. This assembly is prepared for hosts expecting 10GB-4-F01-QSFP and is checked for identification, stable link behavior and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. We recommend confirming the equipment model and software release for critical deployments or mixed-vendor installations.

Use part number 10GB-4-F01-QSFP for the 1m (3ft) assembly. For mixed-length projects, list each required part number and quantity separately so that every cable can be tested and packed according to its intended installation.

HT inspects and tests every completed cable before it enters finished stock. Protective caps or covers are fitted where applicable, followed by anti-static or tray packaging and an outer carton. Custom labels can cross-reference the customer part number, 10GB-4-F01-QSFP and the 1m (3ft) length for easier inventory control.

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days. Worldwide courier, air freight and sea freight options are available, and shipments can also be sent on your own courier account or delivered to an appointed forwarder.
