The JBX03546 represents a critical solution for modern data center and enterprise network infrastructure. This 5-meter 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP+ active optical cable is engineered as a fully compatible replacement for Ruckus E40G-QSFP-4SFP-AOC-0501 modules, providing seamless integration into existing Ruckus environments. Key Technical Specifications: This breakout AOC utilizes OM3 50/125 multimode fiber with 8 strands for robust signal transmission, supporting the full 40GBASE-SR4 specification at 40GB data rates. The cable meets IEEE 802.3ba standards and SFF-8436 specifications, ensuring compatibility with standards-compliant equipment. At 5 meters, it provides the optimal length for rack-to-rack connectivity without signal degradation. Construction & Safety: The OFNR (Riser Rated) jacket ensures compliance in vertical pathways and plenum spaces, while the LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) construction minimizes fire hazards and toxic fume emission. Multiple safety certifications—including UL/FDA 21CFR 1040.10, TUV, and Class 1 Laser qualification—demonstrate adherence to the highest safety standards. Environmental Compliance: Fully RoHS and ELV compliant, meeting EU Directive 2002/95/EC requirements. The cable operates reliably across a wide temperature range (0-70°C), accommodating diverse deployment environments. Applications & Benefits: - Data Center Connectivity: Enable 40G breakout architectures for flexible network scaling - Enterprise Networks: Support high-speed interconnects between network equipment - Reduced Footprint: Breakout design consolidates multiple fiber connections into single QSFP+ interface - Future-Proof Investment: Standards-based design ensures long-term compatibility The 90-day limited warranty and free standard shipping on orders over $99 provide additional value, making this cable an economical choice for network professionals requiring reliable, standards-compliant 40G optical connectivity.
