The JBX04143 5-meter HPE-compatible 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 active optical cable represents enterprise-grade connectivity designed for demanding data center environments. This high-speed AOC bridges the gap between traditional fiber infrastructure and next-generation 100GB networking requirements. **Technical Excellence** Built on proven OM3 50/125 multimode fiber technology, this cable delivers consistent 100GB data rates while maintaining signal integrity over 5-meter distances. The QSFP28 form factor provides industry-standard compatibility, and the active optical design eliminates copper-related constraints, enabling longer reach and improved reliability in high-heat server rack environments. **Safety & Compliance** The LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) jacketing ensures fire safety compliance in building codes across North America and internationally. The cable meets stringent safety certifications including Class 1 Laser compliance, UL/FDA approvals per 21CFR 1040.10, and TUV certification. Full RoHS and ELV directive compliance makes this cable suitable for environmentally conscious enterprises. **HPE Ecosystem Integration** This cable directly replaces HPE OEM part numbers Q9S71A, JL276A-5M, 834972-B22, and 845410-B21-5M, ensuring seamless integration with existing HPE switch infrastructure. The OFNR (Riser Rated) designation permits installation in building vertical runs and plenum spaces, expanding deployment flexibility. **Operational Specifications** With a broad operating temperature range of 0-70°C (32-158°F), this AOC maintains performance across seasonal variations and diverse data center cooling scenarios. The 8-strand fiber design provides redundancy and signal stability for business-critical applications. **Ordering Benefits** Qualify for free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. Ships from convenient US locations in Danville, CA or Beaufort, SC. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and custom brand programming options for enterprise deployments.
