AOC kábel CBO BlueOptics QSFP28 BO282803L5M 100G 5 m

AOC cable CBO BlueOptics QSFP28 BO282803L5M 100G 5 m is an active optical cable designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet interconnects in data center and enterprise network environments. The QSFP28 form factor integrates a transceiver and fiber cable into a single assembly, providing a 5 meter OM3/OM4-equivalent optical link for short-reach, high-bandwidth connections between servers, switches and other networking equipment. The product is intended for installations where low latency, compact cabling and reliable 100G throughput are required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC offers native 100G connectivity with reduced electrical-to-optical conversion complexity compared with separate transceiver plus patch cable configurations. The integrated assembly reduces rack cabling bulk and helps maintain signal integrity over the specified 5 m distance. As an active optical cable, it provides predictable performance for high-density deployments and minimizes heat and power considerations in constrained rack spaces.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch 100G links within the same rack or adjacent racks
• High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency interconnects
• Data center top-of-rack (ToR) and spine deployment where compact 5 m runs are sufficient

Key specifications

• Form factor: QSFP28 integrated active optical cable
• Rated data rate: 100 Gigabit Ethernet
• Cable length: 5 meters
• Cable type: active optical cable (AOC) suitable for short-reach data center links
• Typical applications: server, switch and high-density rack interconnects

How to use

Install the QSFP28 AOC by aligning each QSFP28 connector with the device port and inserting until the latch engages; ensure the host equipment supports QSFP28 100G modules and AOC assemblies. Avoid excessive bending or strain on the optical cable and maintain proper cable routing within the rack to prevent obstruction and preserve airflow. When removing, release the connector latch before pulling the cable straight out to avoid damaging the port or cable.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with your switch or server vendor and check firmware or configuration requirements for 100G QSFP28 AOC operation. Keep the cable away from sharp edges and high-temperature sources; observe standard ESD precautions when handling connectors.
