The JBX04073 30m HPE Compatible 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 Active Optical Cable represents the ideal solution for modern data center and enterprise networking infrastructure. This advanced active optical cable combines cutting-edge fiber optic technology with robust engineering to deliver exceptional 100GB data transmission rates over extended distances. **Technical Specifications:** This cable features 8-strand OM3 50/125 multimode fiber construction, delivering high-speed connectivity across 30 meters without signal degradation. The QSFP28 form factor ensures seamless integration with contemporary network switching equipment, while the 100GBASE-SR4 standard enables multi-lane, parallel transmission for superior bandwidth utilization. **Safety & Compliance:** Manufactured to the highest industry standards, the JBX04073 carries multiple certifications including UL/FDA 21CFR 1040.10, TUV certification, and Class 1 Laser compliance. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacketing reduces toxic fumes and smoke emission in case of fire, meeting EU RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC requirements. The OFNR (Riser Rated) designation permits installation in vertical runs between building floors, supporting fire safety compliance. **Compatibility & Performance:** Direct compatibility with HPE networking products (replaces OEM part numbers Q9S71A-30M, 834972-B28, JL278A-30M, and 845414-B21-30M) ensures immediate deployment. IEEE 802.3bm qualification guarantees standardized performance metrics and interoperability across vendor ecosystems. The cable operates reliably across 0-70°C temperatures, accommodating varied data center environments. **Enterprise Applications:** Ideal for high-density server interconnects, switch-to-switch connections, and storage area network (SAN) deployments. The 30-meter length bridges medium distances while maintaining signal integrity without requiring amplification or signal regeneration. **Additional Benefits:** Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, 90-day limited warranty, and custom brand programming options enhance value. Ships from strategic US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC) ensuring rapid delivery to enterprises nationwide.
