Dell 7m QSFP+ to 4xSFP+ 40Gbps Breakout Cable

The Dell 462-3641 is a breakout cable that converts a single QSFP+ switch or adapter port into four independent SFP+ links. It delivers an aggregated bandwidth of up to 40Gbps and offers a reach of 7 meters through copper conductors with a direct attach design, so there is no need for separate transceivers.

This cable is a practical choice for short-distance runs within the same rack or between adjacent racks. Network administrators can use it to fan out a 40Gbps top-of-rack switch port to four 10Gbps server connections, streamline wiring inside blade enclosures, or build out storage fabrics that require predictable, low-cost links at high speed.

Because Dell has tested and validated the cable with its own servers, switches, and storage systems, integration is straightforward. Plug-and-play operation helps reduce deployment time, and Dell technical support is available if any questions arise.

For data center teams that need reliable, high-bandwidth connectivity without the expense of fiber optics, the Dell 462-3641 provides a simple, dependable option.
