The JBX03488 1m 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP+ to 4x SFP+ Active Optical Cable is a professional-grade breakout solution engineered for modern high-speed data center infrastructure. Designed as a direct compatible alternative to the Ruckus E40G-QSFP-4SFP-AOC-0101, this cable enables seamless 40Gbps connectivity with exceptional reliability and safety. **Technical Specifications & Performance:** Utilizing OM3 50/125 multimode fiber with 8 individual strands, this cable supports the 40GBASE-SR4 standard, delivering consistent 40Gbps data rates up to 100 meters on OM3 infrastructure. The active optical cable technology eliminates signal degradation associated with passive copper solutions, making it ideal for long-distance data center interconnects and server-to-switch applications. **Safety & Compliance:** The cable features LSZH (Low Smoke, Zero Halogen) jacketing that produces minimal smoke and toxic gases during combustion—critical for enclosed data center environments. Riser-rated (OFNR) certification ensures compliance with building codes for non-plenum installations. Full RoHS/ELV and EU directive 2002/95/EC compliance guarantees environmental responsibility, while UL/FDA, TUV, and Class 1 laser certifications verify safety across all operating conditions. **Practical Advantages:** The 1-meter length provides flexibility for dense switch deployments and modular architectures without excess cable waste. Unlike passive copper breakout cables, active optical technology generates minimal heat and electromagnetic interference, improving overall data center efficiency. The compact form factor with precision connectors ensures reliable seating in high-density switch ports. **Deployment Scenarios:** • Data center 40Gbps uplinks and inter-switch fabric connections • High-performance server-to-storage networks • Research and HPC cluster interconnects • Financial trading and media production workflows • Ruckus network infrastructure upgrades and replacements **Quality & Support:** Manufactured in Vietnam and China to rigorous standards, this cable includes 90-day limited warranty protection. Custom brand programming is available for enterprise customers. Ships from strategic US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. Choose the JBX03488 for proven compatibility, superior safety standards, and cost-effective 40Gbps connectivity that meets enterprise-grade reliability requirements.
