The JBX03905 5m Active Optical Cable represents a premium connectivity solution for modern data center infrastructure requiring high-speed, reliable optical transmission. This QSFP28 breakout AOC cable is specifically engineered to convert a single 100GB QSFP28 connection into four independent 25GB SFP28 channels, enabling flexible network architecture and maximum scalability. Key Technical Features: This cable utilizes OM3 50/125 multimode fiber with 8 fiber strands, delivering optimal performance for short-reach, high-bandwidth applications. The 5-meter length provides ideal spacing for typical rack-to-rack deployments within data centers. Operating across temperatures from 0 to 70°C (32 to 158°F), the cable maintains consistent performance in diverse environments. Compliance and Safety: Fully compliant with IEEE 802.3bm specifications and QSFP28 MSA standards, this cable integrates seamlessly into certified network infrastructures. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) riser-rated (OFNR) jacketing exceeds fire safety requirements, making it suitable for plenum and non-plenum installations. Multiple safety certifications including Class 1 Laser, TUV, UL/FDA 21CFR 1040.10 ensure reliability and user protection. Compatibility and Performance: Direct compatibility with Arista AOC-Q-4S-100G-5M equipment eliminates integration concerns. The cable's breakout design allows network administrators to repurpose legacy SFP28 infrastructure while leveraging newer 100GB QSFP28 switches. Value Proposition: Offering free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, with convenient fulfillment from multiple US locations, this cable delivers enterprise-grade performance at competitive pricing. The 90-day limited warranty provides additional peace of mind for critical infrastructure investments. Ideal Applications: Perfect for upgrading data center fabrics, connecting high-performance computing clusters, establishing direct server-to-switch links, and implementing flexible multi-tenant optical infrastructure. Custom brand programming is available for OEM and integrator requirements.
