Dell CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M Compatible 40G QSFP+ to 4 x 10G SFP+ Active Optical Breakout Cable, 1m (3ft)

For short, high-density connections, this AOC cable combines 40G performance with a fixed 1m (3ft) cable run. It corresponds to Dell CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M and uses a factory-terminated active optical link with the optical engines and fiber integrated into the assembly.

OEM Part Number: CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1MHT Part Number: CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Dell CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M
• 40G connectivity at 40Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to 4 SFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 1m (3ft), CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M
• 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 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.

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), CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M 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.

CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M 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 CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC2M 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.

Our compatibility setup for Dell CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M is checked together with the physical 1m (3ft) assembly. Factory verification covers connector condition, host identification, error-free link establishment and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Providing the exact host model and firmware release helps us identify platform-specific requirements before production.

When ordering, specify CBL-QSFP-4 x 10G-AOC1M, cable length 1m (3ft) and the host platform. This allows our team to verify both the physical assembly and the compatibility requirement before production. Neutral labeling and customer packing lists can be arranged for volume orders.

Production inspection covers both physical condition and a live link check. Connector ends receive individual protection, and the completed assembly is packed without tight ties or sharp bends. For multi-length projects, cartons can be separated and labelled by OEM part number to simplify installation on site.

Lead time for ordinary configurations is normally one to three working days, while production quantities are confirmed with the order. We can arrange express courier or economy freight according to destination and carton volume, or hand the shipment to your appointed logistics provider.
