Hi
In Cisco Documentation about Nexus 9336C-FX2, It was mentioned we can use QSFP-4X10G-LR-S on ports to divide a 40GE port into 4x10GE ports.
I have some questions in this regard:
1- Can we use a OS1 MTP(MPO) to 4*LC RECEPTICAL COUPLER on this port for dividing 40GE into 4x10GE connections?
2- Does Cisco provide such a cable or We need to get from a third-party vendor.(What is the part number?)
3- In the following link, It was mentioned: "The 4x10G connectivity is achieved using an external 12-fiber parallel to 2-fiber duplex breakout cable, which connects the 4x10G LR module to four 10GBASE-LR optical interfaces. Ciscoās QSFP-4X10G-LR-S is optimized to guarantee interoperability in 4x10G mode over the full specification range of 10GBASE-LR and the SFP-10/25G-LR-S (in 10G mode). QSFP-4X10G-LR-S does not support FCoE."
I don't understand this paragraph. If we are dividing 40GE into 4x10GE then we need 8-Fiber to 2-Fiber Breakout cable. Does 12 to 2 means 40GE is divided by 6?

4- I don't want to use Active Breakout on these ports....
Thank you for your help and support...
