Mellanox 8 Fiber MPO to 4 x 2 Fiber MPO Duplex LCs Passive Optical Splitter Cable - 16.40 ft Hybrid Fiber Optic Network Cable for Network Device, Switch, Security Device, Server - First End: 1 x MPO 12 pin Network - Male - Second End: 8 x LC Male Network

Mellanox® MC6709309 is an MPO (8 fibers) to 4 duplex LCs (2 fibers) passive optical splitter cable designed for 100GbE to 4 x 25GbE cable assemblies connections, for example. Connecting this optical cable to Mellanox QSFP and SFP transceivers provides connectivity between devices using a QSFP port on one end and multiple SFP ports on the other end. The fiber assembly, also referred to as a "splitter cable" or "breakout cable", enables splitting the 4 channels in a quad-channel multi-mode transceiver into 4 separate single channels. This is used in data centers to link Top-of-Rack QSFP switch ports to single channel SFP ports in switches, servers, storage or other network appliances. Rigorous cable production testing ensures best out-of-the-box installation experience, performance and durability. Mellanox optical solutions provide short, medium and long range scalability for all topologies, utilizing innovative optical technologies to enable extremely high signal integrity and reliability.
