The JBX05760 2m 100GBASE-CR4 QSFP28 passive DAC cable represents a premium solution for high-speed network connectivity in modern data centers and enterprise environments. This passive direct attach copper cable eliminates the cost and complexity of active transceivers while maintaining exceptional performance standards required by demanding network architectures. **Key Features & Specifications:** Built with high-quality 28AWG twinax copper conductors and protective plastic jacketing, this cable delivers consistent 100Gb/s throughput ideal for short-reach connections. The QSFP28 form factor connectors provide universal compatibility across compatible equipment. At just 2 meters in length, it's perfectly sized for rack-to-rack or adjacent equipment connections without excess cable management overhead. **Standards & Compliance:** This cable is qualified to IEEE 802.3bj specifications, ensuring compatibility with industry-standard 100GBASE-CR4 implementations. It meets QSFP28 MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) and SFF-8665 standards, with full RoHS and EU Directive 2002/95/EC compliance. UL and TUV certifications provide additional assurance of safety and quality standards. **Fortinet Compatibility:** Explicitly designed as a direct replacement for Fortinet FN-CABLE-QSFP28-2, this cable integrates seamlessly into existing Fortinet infrastructure without compatibility concerns. **Operational Benefits:** Passive DAC cables offer significant advantages over active solutions: lower cost, reduced power consumption, minimal heat generation, and simpler troubleshooting. With operating temperatures ranging from 0-70°C (32-158°F), deployment flexibility spans diverse data center environments. **Warranty & Support:** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty, with convenient shipping from US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC). Free standard shipping applies to orders exceeding $99, reducing total acquisition costs for bulk deployments. **Ideal Applications:** Perfect for high-frequency trading environments, cloud computing infrastructure, storage area networks (SANs), and enterprise data centers requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth interconnectivity without premium active transceiver investment.
