Description
The AddOn Cisco® QSFP-100G-AOC3M to Ciena® compatible TAA 100GBase-AOC active optical cable provides a cost-effective and reliable high-speed interconnect for data center and enterprise applications. Supporting a maximum reach of 3 meters (9.8ft) over multimode fiber (MMF) at 850nm, this cable delivers an aggregate bit rate of 103.1Gbps across four independent full-duplex channels.
Fully compliant with QSFP28 MSA standards, it features low power consumption (≤2.5W per terminal), a robust 4x25G electrical interface, and ensures seamless compatibility with Cisco® and Ciena® OEM solutions. Each unit is programmed, uniquely serialized, and rigorously tested for data traffic and application performance, guaranteeing OEM-equivalent functionality.
Backed by AddOn’s limited lifetime warranty, this TAA-compliant solution offers proven performance and reliability for high-bandwidth networking environments such as InfiniBand EDR and 100G Ethernet.
