The JBX03272 15-meter 400GBASE-SR8 QSFP-DD Active Optical Cable represents the pinnacle of high-speed network connectivity for enterprise environments. Engineered to seamlessly integrate with Juniper switching and routing equipment, this solution delivers exceptional performance and reliability for data center infrastructure upgrades. Technical Specifications: This active optical cable utilizes OM3 50/125 multimode fiber construction with 16 fiber strands optimized for 400GBASE-SR8 transmission standards. Operating within the 0-70°C temperature range, it maintains consistent performance across diverse deployment environments. The cable achieves 400GB data rates per IEEE 802.3cm specifications and QSFP-DD Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) standards, ensuring compatibility with next-generation switching platforms. Build Quality & Safety: The robust plastic jacketing with LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) formulation provides flame resistance (OFNR rated) critical for facility safety compliance. Multiple certifications—including Class 1 Laser safety (LN #50 7/2001), TUV, UL/FDA (21CFR 1040.10), and full RoHS/ELV directive compliance—demonstrate manufacturing excellence and regulatory adherence. Deployment Advantages: Active optical cables eliminate copper cabling limitations, providing superior signal integrity over extended distances. The 15-meter length accommodates mid-range rack-to-rack and chassis interconnections without signal degradation. This flexibility reduces overall system costs while improving airflow and reducing heat generation compared to passive alternatives. Applications: Ideal for enterprise data centers, cloud infrastructure, high-performance computing clusters, and service provider backbone networks requiring maximum throughput and reliability. The Juniper compatibility ensures seamless integration with QFX5000, PTX10000, and other high-speed switching platforms. Warranty & Support: Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and custom brand programming availability, this solution offers flexibility for OEM partnerships and enterprise standardization initiatives. Free standard shipping applies to orders over $99, with distribution from US facilities in California and South Carolina.
