AOC kábel BlueOptics AOC-Q28-100G-1M-BO 1 m QSFP28 konektor samec/konektor samec

The AOC Cable BlueOptics AOC-Q28-100G-1M-BO 1m QSFP28 Male/Male is a 1 metre Active Optical Cable (AOC) with QSFP28 connectors designed for high-speed data transmission in data centre and networking environments. It implements 100GBASE-SR4 compatible links over multimode fibre with integrated transmitter and receiver modules in each QSFP28 end, delivering low latency and reliable performance for short-reach 100 Gbps interconnects.

Advantages

This AOC provides a factory-terminated, plug-and-play QSFP28 to QSFP28 connection that reduces the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. Its multimode optical design supports 100 Gbps links with low power consumption and consistent signal integrity suitable for top-of-rack and adjacent-rack interconnects. The 1 m length minimises excess cabling in high-density racks while maintaining compliance with MSA-style QSFP28 interfaces.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 100 Gbps connections between switches, routers and servers
• Top-of-rack and adjacent-rack cabling in data centres
• High-density networking environments requiring low-latency links
• Applications using 100GBASE-SR4, Ethernet or Fibre Channel over Ethernet

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with multimode fibre
• Data rate: up to 100 Gbps
• Standard compatibility: 100GBASE-SR4
• Length: 1 metre
• Typical use: short-reach rack-to-rack interconnects

How to use

Insert each QSFP28 connector into compatible QSFP28 ports on networking equipment, ensuring the latch engages and the connectors are aligned with the port keying. The cable is hot-pluggable; most systems will auto-negotiate and present the link without additional configuration. Verify link status and port settings in your switch or server management interface to confirm full 100G operation and proper lane mapping when using 100GBASE-SR4 mode.

Recommendations

Handle the AOC by the connector housings and avoid sharp bends in the cable bundle; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode optical assemblies. Use 1 m length to reduce cable congestion in dense racks and check compatibility with your hardware vendor for supported AOC modules if vendor interoperability is required.
