1G copper port Not Supported Not Supported Supported
Note:
The following appliances do not support the 1G fiber transceiver in a 10G port.
• MPX/SDX 89xx
• MPX/SDX 89xxT
• MPX/SDX 15xxx‑50G
• MPX/SDX 14xxx‑40G
• MPX/SDX 14xxx‑40S
• MPX/SDX 25xxx‑40G
Workaround: Use a 10G/1G dual speed transceiver to obtain 1G speeds.
For more information about supported transceivers per port, see 25G, 40G, 50G, and 100G ports.

• What is QSFP+?
QSFP+ stands for Quad Small Form‑factor Pluggable, which is a small, hot‑pluggable transceiver
for connecting data devices. This transceiver is used for 40G interfaces.
QSFP+ to four SFP+ Copper Breakout Cables: These cables connect to four SFP+ 10GE ports
of an ADC appliance on one end and to a QSFP+ 40G port of a Cisco switch on the other end.
Support for 40G connectivity: Citrix ADC models that have at least four 10G SFP+ ports con‑
nect to Cisco 40G interfaces by aggregating four of the 10G SFP+ ports to form a 40G link aggrega‑
tion channel. QSFP to Four port SFP+ Copper Breakout Cable QSFP‑4SFP10G‑CU3M (reports
as L45593‑D178‑C30) is used. The reverse is not supported. That is, connectivity from a 40G
port on a Citrix ADC appliance and 4x10G ports on the peer switch is not supported.
• Which Citrix ADC appliances support the
QSFP‑4SFP10G‑CU3M (reports as L45593‑D178‑C30) Breakout Cable?
Citrix ADC appliances that have at least four 10G SFP+ ports support the QSFP Breakout Cable.
