The JBX03809 active optical cable represents an advanced networking solution for organizations requiring high-speed, long-distance fiber connectivity. This 20-meter breakout cable features a sophisticated 1-to-2 QSFP28 configuration, allowing single-port connections to distribute across dual QSFP28 interfaces, maximizing port efficiency in modern data center architectures. Technical Specifications and Performance: This cable meets rigorous 100GBASE-SR4 standards, supporting full 100GB throughput across 8 fiber strands. The OM3 50/125 multimode fiber core ensures optimal signal propagation, while the LSZH OFNR (Outdoor Fiber Non-conducting) rated jacket provides superior fire safety and reduced toxic emission characteristics—essential for deployment in enclosed spaces and commercial buildings. Compatibility and Integration: Specifically engineered as a compatible replacement for Extreme Networks part number 10449, the JBX03809 integrates seamlessly with existing Extreme Networks infrastructure without requiring firmware updates or reconfiguration. Full compliance with IEEE 802.3bm and QSFP28 MSA standards ensures compatibility with compliant switching equipment. Certifications and Compliance: Comprehensive safety certifications include Class 1 Laser compliance, TUV approval, UL/FDA verification to 21CFR 1040.10 standards, and EU RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC compliance. These certifications validate the cable's safety for personnel and environmental responsibility. Operational Advantages: The active optical cable technology eliminates signal degradation associated with traditional copper cabling over extended distances, ideal for modern high-density data center deployments. Operating reliably across 0-70°C, the cable performs consistently in various environments. Custom brand programming is available for OEM integration requirements. Shipping and Support: Eligible for free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, with distribution from Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC locations. Each unit includes a 90-day limited warranty, providing confidence in product reliability and supporting peace of mind investment.
