Molex 100GbE QSFP28 to 4x 25GbE SFP28 Passive DAC Twinax Breakout Cable 2.5 Meter 1003451254

The Molex 1003451254 is a high-performance passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) breakout cable designed to connect one 100GbE QSFP28 port to four 25GbE SFP28 ports. Built with high-quality 30AWG Twinax copper cable, this assembly delivers reliable, low-latency connectivity for data centers, enterprise networks, cloud environments, and high-performance computing applications.

This cost-effective breakout solution eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fiber cabling for short-distance deployments, making it ideal for Top-of-Rack (ToR) switching and server connectivity.
