The JBX05522 3-meter 100GBASE-CR2 QSFP28 breakout DAC cable represents a cost-effective, high-performance solution for Juniper network deployments requiring 100GB connectivity. As a direct replacement for the Juniper JNP-100G-2X50G-3M, this cable integrates seamlessly into existing network architectures without requiring firmware updates or configuration changes. **Technical Specifications:** This passive direct attach copper cable features industry-standard QSFP28 connectors with a unique breakout configuration that splits one 100G connection into two 50G streams. The 26AWG twinax construction minimizes signal degradation while maintaining flexibility for deployment in confined spaces. Operating from 0 to 70°C, it performs reliably in both standard and elevated-temperature datacenter environments. **Performance & Benefits:** As a passive DAC, this cable eliminates the power requirements and latency overhead associated with active optical adapters. The copper-based construction provides superior electromagnetic interference (EMI) resistance, critical for high-density datacenter deployments. IEEE 802.3bj qualified performance ensures compatibility with leading network equipment manufacturers. **Compliance & Standards:** Fully certified under RoHS and EU directive 2002/95/EC, this cable meets environmental and safety requirements for global deployment. TUV and UL certifications confirm adherence to international safety standards. The cable qualifies to QSFP28 MSA specifications and SFF-8665 form factor standards. **Applications:** Ideally suited for datacenter interconnects, high-frequency trading networks, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise storage area networks (SANs). Perfect for organizations standardizing on Juniper equipment seeking OEM-equivalent reliability at competitive pricing. **Shipping & Support:** Ships from multiple US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC) ensuring rapid delivery. Includes 90-day limited warranty and comprehensive technical support. Free standard shipping available on qualifying orders.
