The 100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ to 4x 25G SFP28 25G NRZ Breakout AOC, 1m (3ft) is an active optical cable assembly with QSFP28 to 4x SFP28, carrying 100Gbps over OM3 multimode breakout at 850nm. Factory terminated and tested as a complete link, it offers a lighter and more flexible alternative to discrete transceivers with patch cords for 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks. Standard lengths span 1m (3ft) to 50m (164ft).

Designed for 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks, the 100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ to 4x 25G SFP28 25G NRZ Breakout AOC, 1m (3ft) carries 100Gbps between QSFP28 to 4x SFP28 interfaces. This unit is provided in 11 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 50m (164ft). It installs directly into standard ports with no separate transceivers or patch cords to manage at either end. It is interoperable with Cisco platforms and replaces the Cisco part QSFP-4SFP25G-AOC1M directly. The link runs QSFP28-4x 25G-NRZ SFP28-1x 25G-NRZ modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 100G switch silicon.
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the Cisco part QSFP-4SFP25G-AOC1M and works in Cisco systems out of the box. Standards compliance covers QSFP28 MSA, SFP28 MSA.
The part number varies by length, e.g. QSFP-100G-4SAO01 at the shortest standard option. The cable is supplied in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft), 30m (98ft) and 50m (164ft). Custom lengths beyond the standard range are available on request.
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
Most orders travel by international express and arrive within days; palletized freight by air or sea is used for volume orders. If you prefer, we ship on your DHL, UPS or FedEx account, or deliver to your appointed agent in China for onward consolidation.
We do not ship untested stock. Each transceiver and cable is powered up in our test racks, checked for link stability, transmit power, receiver sensitivity and diagnostic readouts, and only then packed for delivery. This factory-level testing is one reason network integrators keep reordering from us year after year.
Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.
