Applications
The 100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ AOC, 0.5m (2ft) is a 100Gbps active optical cable for QSFP28 to QSFP28 connections in 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks. This unit is stocked in 11 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 30m (98ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. It is interoperable with Cisco platforms and replaces the Cisco part QSFP-100G-AOC50CM directly. The link runs 4x 25G-NRZ to 4x 25G-NRZ modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 100G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the Cisco part QSFP-100G-AOC50CM and works in Cisco systems out of the box. Standards compliance covers IEEE 802.3 bm, SFF-8665.
Ordering Information
The ordering code varies with length, such as QSFP-100G-AO005 for the shortest option. Standard supply covers 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft) and 30m (98ft). Custom length production is available for project requirements. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
How We Pack
Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.
Factory Custom Capability
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
How We Ship
Most orders travel by international express and arrive within days; palletized freight by air or sea is used for volume orders. If you prefer, we ship on your DHL, UPS or FedEx account, or deliver to your appointed agent in China for onward consolidation.
Quality and Testing
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
