QSFP-100G-AOC15M-AO - 15 m Cisco-Compatible 100GBASE QSFP28 Active Optical Cable

The AddonQSFP-100G-AOC15M-AO is a 15-meter Active Optical Cable (AOC) preconfigured for plug-and-play compatibility with Cisco QSFP28 ports. Delivering full 100 Gbps performance via QSFP28-to-QSFP28 links over multimode fiber, it simplifies high-speed data center interconnects without external transceivers or patch cords. Its factory-programmed serialization and tested compatibility ensure OEM-level reliability in Cisco Catalyst and Nexus systems

Features

Optimized for efficiency and airflow, the lightweight cable features an aqua-colored LSZH jacket, reducing rack clutter and power consumption (<3.5 W per module) without compromising signal integrity. It meets MSA, IEEE 802.3bm, TAA, and RoHS standards, making it suitable for regulated and enterprise environments

Advanced Options

This 15 m AOC leverages high-bandwidth multimode fiber optics transmitting at 850 nm using VCSEL-based active optic modules. It achieves 100 Gbps in both directions across four 25 Gbps PAM4 lanes. As a Cisco-compatible model, EOL no mismatch warnings or errors×instead, seamless initialization and recognition on Cisco hardware. The optical cable operates with low error rates and industry-grade reliability, benefiting dense rack deployments, cloud networks, and hyperscale data centers

Product Key Features

• Supports 100 Gbps (100GBASE) over QSFP28 connection

• Cisco-compatible part code QSFP-100G-AOC15M preprogramming

• 15 m length ideal for rack-to-rack ties

• Aqua-colored LSZH jacket for visibility and safety
