Description
The 100G QSFP28 to 4×SFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) is a high-performance breakout solution designed for modern data centers and telecom networks. This cable allows a single 100G QSFP28 port to interface seamlessly with four 25G SFP28 devices, enabling flexible network scaling while maintaining low latency and high-speed data transmission.
Featuring four independent channels using 850nm VCSEL arrays over OM3 multimode fiber, the AOC delivers stable, high-bandwidth performance over short to medium distances. Its fully integrated design combines optical transceivers and fiber into a single rugged assembly, reducing insertion loss, minimizing rack space usage, and eliminating the need for separate patch cords or transceivers.
This 3-meter AOC is ideal for high-density rack deployments, interconnecting adjacent cabinets or servers within the same data center. The cable supports plug-and-play installation, simplifying deployment while ensuring compliance with industry standards for 100G and 25G optical interconnects.
