BlueOptics QSFP28 naar 4x SFP28 Active Optical Cable 10m (32.8ft) 100G Breakout AOC

The BlueOptics QSFP28 to 4x SFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) is a high-performance breakout cable designed for data centers and high-performance computing environments. It provides a reliable 100 Gbps aggregate link from a QSFP28 port to four independent 25 Gbps SFP28 ports over a 10-meter length, using multimode fiber technology.

Advantages

This active optical cable offers significant advantages over traditional copper cabling, including longer reach, lighter weight, and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The breakout design allows for flexible network architecture, enabling a single 100G port to connect to four 25G devices or servers. The cable is hot-pluggable and MSA compliant, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Data center top-of-rack to server connections
• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters
• Enterprise network aggregation
• 100G to 25G breakout applications
