The JBX03885 30-meter 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 active optical cable represents a premium solution for high-speed data center connectivity. This breakout cable converts a single 100GB QSFP28 connection into four 25GB SFP28 channels, offering exceptional flexibility for network architects managing multi-tier infrastructure. **Technical Specifications:** This AOC utilizes 8 strands of OM3 50/125 multimode fiber, optimized for 100GBASE-SR4 transmission standards. The active electronics integrated within the cable amplify signals, ensuring pristine data integrity across the full 30-meter run. Unlike passive DACs (direct attach cables), this active solution eliminates attenuation issues and maintains signal fidelity critical for low-latency, high-throughput applications. **Standards Compliance & Safety:** Fully qualified to IEEE 802.3bm specifications, the cable meets stringent international requirements. The LSZH jacket provides fire-safe operation, while certifications from UL, FDA (21CFR 1040.10), and TUV validate deployment in commercial and industrial environments. RoHS and ELV directives compliance ensures environmental responsibility. **Installation Benefits:** The OFNR (riser) rating permits installation through building plenums without conduit, simplifying deployment in enterprise facilities. Operating temperature range of 0-70°C accommodates standard data center conditions. The 12x12x30mm form factor integrates seamlessly with existing infrastructure. **Compatibility & Support:** Direct equivalent to Extreme Networks 10444-30M, this cable provides cost-effective redundancy and expansion without vendor lock-in. Custom brand programming is available for white-label requirements. Ships from multiple US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty. **Applications:** Ideal for enterprise data centers, cloud infrastructure, high-performance computing clusters, and campus network backbones requiring reliable 100GB connectivity over moderate distances. Perfect for virtualization environments, storage area networks (SANs), and backbone interconnects.
