AddOn ADD-Q28ARQ28MX-O5M

Arista and Mellanox Compatible 100G QSFP28 Active Optical Cable, 5M

The AddOn ADD-Q28ARQ28MX-O5M is a dual-OEM compatible 100GBASE Active Optical Cable, functioning seamlessly with both Arista Networks AOC-Q-Q-100G-5M and Mellanox MFA1A00-C005 cables. This QSFP28 to QSFP28 cable provides a high-speed, 100 Gigabit Ethernet link, making it an ideal choice for connecting high-density networking switches, servers, and storage devices in a mixed vendor environment. The cable is pre-terminated and ready for immediate use, supporting a maximum reach of 5.0 meters over active multi-mode fiber.

Each AddOn cable is meticulously programmed, uniquely serialized, and tested for data traffic and application to ensure it is 100% compliant and functional. This Active Optical Cable is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant and is built to comply with MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards, guaranteeing optimal performance and seamless integration.

Features :

This Active Optical Cable is engineered with advanced technology to deliver superior performance for 100G applications. It operates at a wavelength of 850nm, which is optimized for high-speed, short-reach connections. The cable's low-power consumption contributes to a more energy-efficient network, while its lightweight and flexible design simplifies installation and cable management. The QSFP28 form factor is hot-pluggable, allowing for modules to be added or replaced without needing to power down the equipment, minimizing network downtime.

Advanced Options :

The 100GBASE-AOC standard of this Active Optical Cable provides a powerful and scalable solution for extending your 100 Gigabit Ethernet network. Its ability to function with both Arista and Mellanox equipment provides unmatched flexibility and cost savings, allowing for a simplified, vendor-agnostic network infrastructure. Unlike copper alternatives, AOCs are not susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring a clean and stable signal transmission, which is crucial for maintaining data integrity in high-density rack environments.
