The QSFP-4SFP25G-CU5M Cisco 5M Passive Copper Splitter Cable is a networking cable designed to split a 40 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) QSFP+ port into four 10 GbE SFP+ ports, allowing for multiple devices to be connected to a single port. Here are some of its key features and specifications:
- Compatibility: The cable is compatible with Cisco networking equipment that supports QSFP+ and SFP+ interfaces.
- Length: The cable is 5 meters (16.4 feet) long, providing flexibility in how devices can be positioned and connected.
- Connectors: The cable has a QSFP+ connector on one end and four SFP+ connectors on the other end, allowing for easy connectivity to compatible devices.
- Passive cable: The cable is a passive copper cable, which means it does not require power to operate and is less expensive than active cables.
- High-speed data transfer: The cable supports high-speed data transfer rates of up to 40 Gb/s, making it suitable for data-intensive applications that require high bandwidth.
- Data integrity: The cable uses high-quality materials and manufacturing processes to ensure data integrity, minimizing errors and ensuring reliable data transfer.
- Cost-effective: The passive copper splitter cable is more cost-effective than using multiple active cables or switches to achieve the same connectivity.
The QSFP-4SFP25G-CU5M Cisco 5M Passive Copper Splitter Cable is a networking cable that does not require any specific configuration or management. It is a passive cable that splits a single 40 GbE QSFP+ port into four 10 GbE SFP+ ports, allowing for multiple devices to be connected to a single port.
However, the devices that are connected to the cable may require configuration and management. For example, if a switch is connected to one end of the cable, it may need to be configured to recognize and manage the four SFP+ ports that are connected to it.
To manage the devices connected to the cable, the network administrator would typically use the management interface of the device, such as a web-based graphical user interface (GUI) or a command-line interface (CLI). The management interface allows the administrator to configure various parameters of the device, such as network settings, security settings, and performance settings.
Troubleshooting common issuesThe QSFP-4SFP25G-CU5M Cisco 5M Passive Copper Splitter Cable is a networking cable that is designed to split a 40 GbE QSFP+ port into four 10 GbE SFP+ ports. Here are some common issues that may arise with the cable and how to troubleshoot them:
- Poor signal quality: Poor signal quality can result in errors, data loss, and reduced performance. Ensure that the cable is securely connected to the devices at both ends, and check for any damage to the cable or connectors. If the problem persists, try using a different cable or check the devices for any configuration issues that may be causing the poor signal quality.
- Device recognition issues: If the devices connected to the cable are not recognized, check that they are compatible with QSFP+ and SFP+ interfaces. Check the cable and connectors for any damage, and try using a different cable to rule out any issues with the cable.
- Speed issues: If the devices are not achieving the expected speed, check the devices' settings and configurations to ensure they are configured correctly. Check that the cable is connected to the correct ports on the devices, and try using a different cable to rule out any issues with the cable.
- Compatibility issues: If the devices are not communicating with each other, check that they are compatible with each other and with the cable. Check the devices' configurations, and try using a different cable to rule out any issues with the cable.
