Dear Team,
I need your advise if we can connect Cisco Nexus 3K or 9K Switch with QSFP 40G uplink to 4x10G SFP-SR on the Cisco 4506-E Switch ?
Please let me know if this is supported ?
Regards,
Farhan.

Hello,
if you use the Cisco QSFP to Four SFP+ Active Optical Breakout Cables, your setup should work.
Check Figure 4 in the attached document:

Hi Gerog,
Thanks for your response.
I have two X2-10GB-SR= modules installed in Sup 6E of Cisco 4506-E. I have 2x 4506-E which means I have a total of 2x 10GB transceiver per 4506-E.
Now I need to know if this optical break out cable work with this scenario. QSFP to 10G-SR ?

Hello,
which QSFP do you have ? There are various types, e.g. QSFP-40G-CSR4, QSFP-40G-SR4, The X2-10GB-SR has SC Duplex connectors. You can basically connect anything to anything, with converters or patchleads.

Hi Georg,
I am planning to purchase the QSFP. Can you please guide me which will work in this scenario and connect to X2-10GB-SR conveniently ?

Hello,
better get with your reseller. You need to look at the things like distance requirements and fiber modes, I cannot make hardware purchase recommendations...
