Description
The AddOn QSFP-OTU4-AOC15M-AO is a TAA-compliant, MSA-standard 100GBase-OTU4 QSFP28 to QSFP28 active optical cable designed for high-speed data center and network applications. Operating over multi-mode fiber at an 850nm wavelength, this cable provides a maximum reach of 15 meters and supports up to 4x28 Gbps bi-directional operation. Built with reliable VCSEL and PIN photonic devices, it ensures excellent high-speed signal integrity while maintaining low power consumption of less than 2.5W. With automatic power-down for enhanced eye safety, standard I2C management, and superior signal performance, this AOC is ideal for 100G Ethernet, OTU4 transport, high-performance computing, and server or storage interconnects. Each unit is uniquely serialized, rigorously tested, and backed by AddOn’s limited lifetime warranty for guaranteed compatibility and reliability.
