The JBX03898 50-meter 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 Active Optical Cable represents a cost-effective, high-performance solution for enterprise data center networks requiring extended reach at 100Gbps speeds. As a direct replacement for the Arista AOC-Q-4S-100G-50M, this cable integrates seamlessly into existing Arista infrastructure while providing the flexibility of breakout connectivity. **Technical Specifications:** This advanced AOC features 8 strands of OM3 50/125 multimode fiber, delivering 100Gbps data transmission over 50 meters. The cable conforms to IEEE 802.3bm and QSFP28 MSA standards, ensuring compatibility with certified network equipment. Its LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) OFNR (Riser Rated) jacketing provides superior fire safety performance while minimizing toxic smoke emissions in case of fire. **Key Benefits:** - Extended 50-meter reach for flexible data center layouts - Breakout configuration allows single 100G connection to split into four 25G paths - Lower latency and power consumption compared to copper alternatives - LSZH jacketing suitable for in-building cable runs - Comprehensive safety certifications (Class 1 Laser, UL/FDA, TUV) **Applications:** Ideal for high-density networking environments, storage area networks (SANs), and cloud infrastructure deployments. Particularly suited for organizations standardized on Arista platforms seeking reliable, future-proof connectivity solutions. **Quality Assurance:** Backed by 90-day limited warranty and manufactured to RoHS/ELV compliance standards. Operating temperature range of 0-70°C ensures stable performance across diverse environmental conditions. Available with custom brand programming options for OEM requirements.
