The following example shows the interface status before splitting a 40G interface:
DellEMC# show interfaces status
Port Description Status Speed Duplex Vlan
Fo 1/3/1 Down 40000 Mbit Auto --
Fo 1/3/2 Down 40000 Mbit Auto --
The following example shows that when you split an interface on a 16X40G module, the subsequent even numbered interface is
removed from the configuration.
DellEMC(conf)# stack-unit [stack-unit number] module [module number] port [port number]
portmode quad speed 10G
Warning: Enabling Quad mode on stack-unit 1 module 3 port 1. Please verify whether the
configs related to interface Fo 1/3/1 Fo 1/3/2 are cleaned up before proceeding further.
[confirm yes/no]:y
Quad mode is enabled on stack-unit 1 module 3 port 1
The interface on stack-unit 1 slot 3 port 2 has been removed
%STKUNIT1-M:CP %IFMGR-5-DYNAMIC_FANOUT: Port 1 in module 3 and slot 1 has been fanned-out
The following example shows that the even numbered interface is removed from the configuration:
DellEMC# show interfaces status
Port Description Status Speed Duplex Vlan

Splitting 100G Ports
The platform supports splitting a single 100G QSFP 28 port into any of the following ports:
● Two 50G ports
● Four 25G ports
● One 40G port
● Four 10G ports
NOTE:
You can use the supported breakout cables (for a list of supported cables, refer to the Installation Guide or the
Release Notes).
To split a single 100G port into 50G, 25G, 40G, and 10G ports, use the following commands:
