I think I'm going to get a Mellanox SX6012 switch but I don't have any 40Gb NICs yet. I was wondering what experience people have had with different QSFP to 4x SFP+ breakout cables and Mellanox switches.
Since I've had luck with passive Cisco SFP+ DACs in my Connectx-2 NICs I thought I might try these:
I think these are QSFP28 rather then QSFP+ and likely incompatible:
Cisco Systems QSFP-4SFP25G-CU1M 4 x SFP-25G Cables | eBay
Any idea if Mellanox Switches are picky with passive breakout cables?
