Black Box QSFP-100G-AOC10M-BB
100 Gbps QSFP28 Active Optical Cable (10 m) – Ultra-thin, LSZH AOC for dense, low-latency data center links
The Black Box QSFP-100G-AOC10M-BB is a high-speed 100 Gbps active optical cable built for data center environments, delivering reliable, low-latency connectivity between QSFP28-enabled devices over a 10-meter span. Ideal for IT and network professionals, it enhances airflow and energy efficiency in dense rack deployments.
Features :
Engineered for 100G Ethernet, InfiniBand, and Fibre Channel applications, this QSFP28-to-QSFP28 AOC complies with QSFP-28 MSA, SFF-8636, and SFF-8665 standards for broad interoperability, including Cisco and other MSA-compliant systems. Using 850 nm VCSEL optics over OM3 multimode fiber, it delivers high bandwidth and dependable performance across data, storage, and HPC networks. The ultra-thin, low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket improves airflow and cable management in space-constrained racks.
Advanced Options :
This all-in-one AOC simplifies deployment versus separate transceivers and patch cords—reducing points of failure and installation time. The hot-swappable design supports quick serviceability with minimal disruption, while the lightweight build helps maintain clean routing in high-density topologies such as spine–leaf, TOR, and EOR.
