BlueOptics H3C Compatible QSFP-100G-4SFP-25G-CAB-5M-BL Passieve Direct Attach Breakout-kabel 5m

The BlueOptics QSFP-100G-4SFP-25G-CAB-5M-BL is a high-performance passive direct attach copper breakout cable designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. It converts a single QSFP28 port into four independent 25 Gigabit SFP28 links, providing a cost-effective and low-power solution for data center interconnects, server-to-switch, and switch-to-switch applications. This cable is fully compatible with H3C equipment and complies with IEEE 802.3bj and SFF standards.

Advantages

This breakout cable offers significant advantages over active optical cables or transceivers: ultra-low power consumption (passive design), high reliability, and reduced cost per port. The 5-meter length with 26 AWG wire gauge ensures optimal signal integrity for short-range high-speed connections. Hot-pluggable QSFP28 and SFP28 connectors enable easy installation and maintenance without network downtime.

Suitable for

• Data center top-of-rack (ToR) to server connections
• High-performance computing clusters
• Enterprise network aggregation
• H3C compatible switches and routers
