Cabo AOC CBO QSFP-100G-AOC-10M — cabo de ligação ótica ativa QSFP+ 100G de 10 m

Active optical cable CBO QSFP-100G-AOC-10M is a 10 m QSFP+ 100G link cable designed to provide a direct, high-bandwidth connection between switches, routers and servers. The cable integrates QSFP+ transceiver modules with optical fibres in a single assembly, offering a compact cabling solution for 100 Gigabit Ethernet interconnects in data centres, telecom racks and high-performance computing environments. Its optical design reduces electromagnetic interference and supports low-latency data transmission over a 10-metre reach.

Advantages

This active optical QSFP+ cable delivers reliable 100G connectivity with the simplicity of a single-cable plug-and-play installation. The integrated optical transceivers and pre-terminated connections minimise installation time and eliminate the need for separate transceiver modules and patch cords. Low power consumption and immunity to electromagnetic interference make the cable suitable for dense rack deployments and noise-sensitive environments. The 10 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack or within-rack connections without compromising signal integrity.

Suitable for

• High-density data centre switch-to-switch interconnects
• Server-to-switch uplinks and top-of-rack connections
• Telecom rack aggregation and spine-leaf architectures
• High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency links

How to use

Insert each QSFP+ connector into the corresponding QSFP+ port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both ends are securely seated and that the connected devices are powered on and configured to support 100G links. No separate transceivers or patch cables are required; the integrated modules auto-negotiate link parameters in compatible equipment. Verify link status LEDs or management software to confirm a successful 100G connection and monitor operating temperature and power draw as part of regular system checks.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable in compatible QSFP+ ports rated for 100G operation and avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable. Maintain adequate airflow around rack equipment to prevent overheating of integrated transceivers. When routing within racks, follow manufacturer bend-radius guidelines and secure the cable to prevent strain on connectors. For mixed-vendor environments, confirm interoperability with device firmware and vendor compatibility lists before deployment.
