The JBX04161 represents cutting-edge fiber optic connectivity technology for modern high-performance networks. As a 7-meter 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 Active Optical Cable, it bridges the gap between demanding bandwidth requirements and reliable network infrastructure, making it an essential component for enterprises and data centers transitioning to 100GB connectivity standards. **Technical Excellence and Performance** Built on OM3 50/125 multimode fiber with 8-strand configuration, this AOC cable delivers consistent 100GB data transmission rates across the full 7-meter distance. The active optical design incorporates embedded optics at both connector ends, eliminating the distance limitations of traditional passive copper alternatives while providing superior signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference. **Compliance and Safety Standards** This cable meets stringent industry requirements including IEEE 802.3bm and QSFP28 Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) specifications. Its LSZH jacketing with OFNR riser rating ensures compliance with building fire codes and environmental directives. Comprehensive safety certifications—including Class 1 Laser, UL, FDA 21CFR 1040.10, and TUV—provide assurance for deployment in regulated environments. **Ideal Applications** Designed specifically for Extreme Networks equipment, this cable excels in datacenter interconnects, high-performance computing clusters, storage area networks, and enterprise campus networks. The 7-meter length bridges equipment in adjacent racks and nearby locations without bandwidth compromise. **Durability and Support** Manufactured to exacting standards with robust plastic jacketing protecting internal fiber strands, the cable operates reliably across 0-70°C temperature ranges. Custom brand programming is available for organizations requiring white-label solutions. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and shipped free on orders over $99 from conveniently located distribution centers, this product combines premium quality with customer-friendly support. **Why Choose This AOC Cable** Unlike passive copper alternatives, this active optical solution eliminates distance limitations while consuming less power. Compared to standard passive QSFP28 DACs (Direct Attach Cables), AOC technology provides flexibility for longer runs with enhanced future-proofing for enterprise network upgrades.
