Product Features
Technical Overview
This active optical cable operates at 100 Gbit/s, providing the bandwidth needed for data center spine-leaf architectures, high-performance computing clusters, and storage area networks. The QSFP28 form factor supports the electrical and optical specifications required for 100GbE, including four lanes of 25 Gb/s.
The cable uses 850nm wavelength over OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber, optimized for short-reach applications up to 15 meters. AOC technology integrates the optical engine within the cable assembly, reducing power consumption and latency compared to traditional fiber patch cables with separate transceivers. The Omni-Path Architecture compatibility ensures interoperability with Intel-based high-performance computing environments.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Fiber Optic Mode, Cable Length, Country of Origin, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
