BlueOptics QSFP28 para SFP28 Active Optical Cable 10m (32,8ft) Breakout AOC BO282703L10M

The BlueOptics BO282703L10M is a high-performance Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed to connect a QSFP28 port to four SFP28 ports, providing a breakout solution for 100G to 4x25G applications. With a length of 10 meters (32.8 feet), this cable is ideal for data center interconnects, high-performance computing, and enterprise networking environments. It supports data rates up to 100 Gbps total (25 Gbps per lane) and is compliant with IEEE 802.3bm 100GBASE-SR4, InfiniBand EDR, and Fibre Channel protocols. The cable features LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket material, ensuring safety in confined spaces. It is hot-pluggable, operates at 3.3V with power consumption under 2.5W, and is compatible with QSFP28 and SFP28 ports from various vendors.

Advantages

This breakout AOC simplifies cabling by combining four 25G SFP28 connections into a single 100G QSFP28 interface, reducing cable clutter and improving airflow. The active optical design ensures low latency and high signal integrity over longer distances compared to copper cables. The LSZH jacket makes it suitable for use in environments with strict fire safety requirements.
