MikroTik DQ+BC0003-DS+ Break Out Cable

At a glance:

• 200 Gigabit QSFP56 port into four independent 50 Gigabit connections
• Also supports: 100G into 4×25G and 40G into 4×10G

The MikroTik DQ+BC0003-DS+ is a high-performance QSFP56 break-out cable designed to bring next-generation connectivity to demanding network environments. Built with precision and engineered for flexibility, this 3-metre direct attach cable transforms a single 200 Gigabit QSFP56 port into four independent 50 Gigabit links, giving you the freedom to maximise port utilisation on modern switches and aggregation platforms.

Beyond its 200 G capability, it maintains seamless compatibility with legacy break-out modes, supporting 100 G to 4×25 G and 40 G to 4×10 G connections, so it integrates easily into mixed-speed infrastructures. Its robust twinax copper design ensures reliable signal integrity with low latency and minimal loss, making it ideal for data centre racks, spine-leaf architectures, and high-capacity deployments where every connection counts.

Plug-and-play simplicity combined with versatile multi-rate support makes this cable an essential tool for network engineers looking to unlock high-speed performance without extra transceivers or complex hardware.
