Designed for 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks, the 100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ to 2x 50G QSFP28 2x 25G NRZ Active Breakout DAC, 1m (3ft) carries 100Gbps between QSFP28 to QSFP28 interfaces. This unit is provided in 6 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 9m (29ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. If your project needs a specific vendor coding or custom label, our production line handles it as a routine step before packing.
Standards compliance covers SFF-8665, QSFP28 MSA, SFF-8636, SFF-8679. The unit works in any equipment with a standard QSFP28 to QSFP28 interface; if your network uses a specific vendor's coding, tell us the switch model and we will program and verify it before delivery.
The part number varies by length, e.g. QSFP-100G-2QAC01 at the shortest standard option. The cable is supplied in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft) and 9m (29ft). Custom lengths beyond the standard range are available on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.
Goods are normally sent by courier such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS; air and sea freight are also available on request. Commonly used items are kept in stock for immediate shipment, and out-of-stock items are usually delivered within a few working days. We can also ship on your courier account or hand goods to your appointed forwarder.
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.
Our product line has grown with the industry for three decades, from GBIC-era modules to today's 800G and 1.6T interconnects. If the exact configuration you need is not listed, we can usually build it: custom lengths, mixed connector breakouts, OEM branding and project-specific firmware coding are all supported.
