BlueOptics Core QSFP28 naar SFP28 Active Optical Cable 10m (32,8ft) 100G QSFP28 naar 25G SFP28 AOC

The BlueOptics Core QSFP28-SFP28-10M is a high-performance Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed for reliable, high-speed data transmission in data centers and high-performance computing environments. This 10-meter (32.8 ft) cable connects a QSFP28 port to an SFP28 port, supporting 100 Gbps from the QSFP28 end and 25 Gbps from the SFP28 end, making it ideal for breakout applications or mixed-speed infrastructure.

Advantages

This AOC offers significant advantages over traditional copper cables: longer reach without signal degradation, lighter weight for easier cable management, and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The hot-pluggable design ensures easy installation and maintenance, while Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) provides real-time performance data. MSA compliant for broad compatibility.
