The JBX03431 is a professional-grade 10-meter active optical cable (AOC) specifically designed to bridge QSFP+ and LC duplex connections in modern data center environments. As a Cisco QSFP-4XLC-AOC10M compatible solution, this cable delivers 40GBASE-SR4 performance specifications, making it an ideal choice for enterprises requiring cost-effective, high-bandwidth network upgrades. **Technical Specifications:** This breakout-style AOC features eight fiber strands configured around a robust plastic jacket rated for OFNR (Riser) installations. The OM3 50/125 multimode fiber core ensures compatibility with existing campus and data center fiber infrastructure while supporting 40GB/s data rates across the full 10-meter span. Operating reliably between 0-70°C, the cable maintains performance consistency in diverse deployment scenarios. **Compliance & Certifications:** The JBX03431 exceeds industry standards with IEEE 802.3ba qualification, RoHS/ELV directive compliance, and multiple safety certifications including Class 1 Laser, TUV, and FDA 21CFR 1040.10. These certifications ensure safe operation in professional networking environments and simplify procurement for regulated facilities. **Ideal Applications:** Perfect for connecting QSFP+ switch ports to LC-equipped servers, storage systems, or network appliances. The breakout configuration eliminates transceiver costs while providing superior signal integrity compared to copper solutions. Particularly valuable in high-density server clusters, fabric networks, and campus backbone installations. **Value Proposition:** Unlike traditional SFP+ transceiver pairs, this integrated AOC solution reduces component count, simplifies inventory management, and delivers lower total cost of ownership. Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99 and domestic shipping from California and South Carolina locations ensure rapid deployment. **Support & Warranty:** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and custom brand programming availability for integration with existing infrastructure management systems. Professional-grade construction and rigorous testing ensure reliable long-term performance in mission-critical applications.
