The JBX03814 2-meter active optical cable represents cutting-edge connectivity technology for modern data centers requiring 100 Gigabit Ethernet performance. This QSFP28 to 2x QSFP28 breakout configuration enables seamless integration into existing Arista network architectures while supporting 100GBASE-SR4 transmission standards. Technical Excellence: Constructed with OM3 50/125 multimode fiber across 8 strands, this AOC delivers optimal performance for short-to-medium range distances. The active optical technology eliminates copper cable limitations, providing superior speed and reliability compared to traditional DAC (Direct Attach Copper) solutions. IEEE 802.3bm qualification ensures compatibility with standards-based equipment and future-proofs your network investment. Build Quality & Safety: The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) OFNR-rated jacket meets stringent fire safety requirements mandated in professional installations. RoHS/ELV compliance demonstrates commitment to environmental responsibility. Multiple safety certifications including UL, FDA 21CFR 1040.10, and Class 1 Laser approval provide comprehensive protection and assurance. Application Benefits: Ideal for high-density data center environments, this breakout cable facilitates efficient bandwidth utilization while minimizing physical footprint. The 2-meter length balances flexibility with manageability, suitable for rack-to-rack deployments. Operating temperature range (0-70°C) accommodates varied facility conditions. Reliability & Support: Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and featuring direct Arista part replacement capability (AOC-Q-2Q-100G-2M), this cable provides peace of mind. Custom brand programming options allow for asset management integration. Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99 makes enterprise deployment cost-effective. Whether upgrading existing infrastructure or building new data center fabric, the JBX03814 delivers the performance, safety, and compatibility that network professionals demand.
