AOC-Q28-100G-5M-AO – Dell Compatible 100G QSFP28 to QSFP28 Active Optical Cable, 5M, TAA Compliant

The Addon AOC-Q28-100G-5M-AO is a high-performance, 100GBASE Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed for high-speed, high-density data center and enterprise networking applications. Featuring QSFP28 to QSFP28 connectors, this 5-meter Active Optical Cable is fully compatible with Dell networking equipment and provides an efficient, low-power alternative to transceivers with separate fiber cables. Designed to meet the demands of today's high-bandwidth environments, this TAA-compliant cable ensures seamless 100Gbps connectivity across switches, routers, servers, and storage arrays. Whether you're expanding a data center, building a high-throughput computing cluster, or connecting top-of-rack switches, this plug-and-play solution simplifies deployment and enhances network reliability.

Features

Built to deliver consistent, high-speed connections, the Addon AOC-Q28-100G-5M-AO enables 100Gbps bi-directional data transfer over a single-mode active optical link, making it ideal for modern data centers and cloud infrastructure. By eliminating the need for separate transceivers and patch cables, this integrated solution reduces complexity, saves on cost, and improves airflow in dense environments.

Advanced Options

The QSFP28 form factor supports four parallel full-duplex lanes, each operating at 25Gbps, resulting in an aggregated bandwidth of 100Gbps. With low latency, EMI immunity, and lower power consumption compared to traditional copper DACs, this AOC is optimized for applications such as high-frequency trading, virtualization, and scalable server clusters. TAA compliance also makes it suitable for government and regulated industry deployments. Manufactured with premium materials and tested for performance and compatibility, Addon cables ensure flawless operation with Dell systems and other OEM platforms. It is hot-swappable and ready for deployment in mission-critical environments.

Product Key Features

  • 100GBASE QSFP28 to QSFP28 Active Optical Cable – 5 Meter

  • Dell Compatible – Fully tested and certified

  • Supports 100Gbps total bandwidth (4x25Gbps lanes)

  • Low Power Consumption & High EMI Immunity

  • Plug-and-play – No transceivers required

  • TAA Compliant – Approved for federal use

Reliability & Performance

The Addon AOC-Q28-100G-5M-AO offers enterprise-grade durability and top-tier signal integrity, critical for today’s hyperscale networks and high-performance computing applications. With its active optical design, it provides superior data transmission over longer distances than passive DAC cables while consuming less power than traditional optical transceiver setups. This AOC’s precision-engineered QSFP28 connectors ensure secure, high-speed connectivity, while the fiber-optic core offers enhanced EMI shielding, thermal stability, and consistent low-latency transmission. The cable's flexibility and lighter weight contribute to improved airflow and ease of installation in high-density racks. Its hot-swappable design enables maintenance and upgrades without network downtime, and the 5-meter length provides enough reach for rack-to-rack or row-to-row connections without signal degradation. Designed and tested for Dell platforms but broadly compatible, this cable is ideal for maximizing throughput while minimizing operational cost and energy use.
