The Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC1M is a 1-meter active optical cable designed for 100GBASE QSFP network connectivity. This fiber optic cable provides a direct connection between network devices equipped with QSFP ports, facilitating high-speed data transfer at 12.50 GB/s. As an active cable, it integrates optical-to-electrical conversion within the connectors, simplifying deployment in data centers and enterprise networks where short-distance, high-bandwidth links are required. It is suitable for IT professionals and network administrators seeking a reliable, pre-terminated solution for interconnecting switches, servers, or other networking hardware over a 1-meter span. The flexible design aids in cable management within racks and enclosures, addressing the need for efficient and organized network infrastructure.
The cable features a QSFP Network connector on both the first and second ends, ensuring compatibility with QSFP-enabled network devices.
This active optical cable supports a data transfer rate of 12.50 GB/s, suitable for 100GBASE applications.
This cable is designed for high-speed, short-distance interconnections between network devices such as switches and servers within data centers or enterprise environments, where 100GBASE QSFP links are needed over a 1-meter span.
Being an 'Active' optical cable means it incorporates integrated electronics within the connectors to convert electrical signals to optical signals and vice versa, enabling longer reach and better signal integrity compared to passive cables for high-speed applications.
