Cabo ótico ativo AOC CBO QSFP-100G-AOC-10M 10 m, QSFP+ para QSFP+, 100G

The AOC CBO QSFP-100G-AOC-10M is a 10-metre Active Optical Cable with QSFP+ connectors at both ends, engineered to deliver 100 Gbps high-speed links for short-reach interconnects. Intended for data centre and enterprise networking environments, this QSFP+ to QSFP+ cable provides a plug-and-play connection that eliminates the need for separate optical transceivers while maintaining low latency and reliable performance over a 10 m reach.

Advantages

This 100G Active Optical Cable offers electrical isolation and reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives, which supports stable high-speed transmission in dense rack environments. The integrated optics and QSFP+ form-factor simplify deployment and lower per-link power consumption versus discrete transceivers plus fiber assemblies. Being a direct QSFP+ to QSFP+ solution, it reduces installation complexity and cable management overhead while supporting consistent throughput suitable for aggregation and spine-leaf topologies.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch high-speed links in top-of-rack deployments
• Switch-to-switch aggregation and spine connections within data centres
• High-performance computing clusters and storage interconnects
• Short-reach links where 100 Gbps throughput and low latency are required

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Data rate: 100 Gbps (aggregate)
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Length: 10 metres
• Form factor: QSFP+ compatible
• Ideal use: short-reach interconnects in racks and data centre aisles

How to use

Insert each QSFP+ connector into the corresponding QSFP+ port on network devices such as switches or servers, ensuring the connector key and latch engage correctly. No separate transceivers or patch cords are required; devices should automatically detect the link if they support QSFP+ AOC assemblies and the 100G interface. Verify port configuration and link status in the device management interface and monitor for correct negotiation and error-free transmission during initial use.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep bend radius within manufacturer guidelines. Use proper cable management in racks to prevent strain on the QSFP+ connectors. Confirm device compatibility with QSFP+ AOC assemblies and 100G link modes before deployment; for mixed vendor environments, check interoperability notes from switch or server vendors.
