Description
High Bandwidth & Low Latency
The Cisco QSFP-4SFP25G-CU2M= 100GbE 2 Meter QSFP Passive Copper Splitter Cable is designed to provide high bandwidth and low latency connectivity between networking devices.
The cable has a quad small form-factor pluggable (QSFP) connector on one end and four small form-factor pluggable (SFP) connectors on the other end. This allows it to split a 100 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) connection into four 25 GbE connections, providing flexible connectivity options for high-speed data transfer.
The cable is also passive, which means it does not require any power to operate, resulting in lower power consumption and reduced operating costs. The use of copper conductors provides reliable and cost-effective connectivity with minimal signal loss.
In terms of bandwidth, the cable can support up to 100 Gbps of data transfer, which is ideal for high-bandwidth applications such as data center interconnects and high-performance computing. Additionally, the low latency of the cable ensures that data is transferred quickly and efficiently between devices, reducing the risk of bottlenecks and delays in data transmission.
Maximum Transmission Distance
The maximum transmission distance of the Cisco QSFP-4SFP25G-CU2M= 100GbE 2 Meter QSFP Passive Copper Splitter Cable is 2 meters.
Passive copper cables have limited transmission distances due to the attenuation of electrical signals over the cable length. As the distance increases, the signal strength decreases, leading to a degradation of performance and reliability. Therefore, it is important to use the appropriate cable length to ensure optimal performance and minimize signal loss.
If longer transmission distances are required, active optical cables or fiber optic cables can be used instead of passive copper cables. These technologies use light to transmit data, which has lower attenuation rates and can support longer distances.
