100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ Active DAC

The 100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ Active DAC, 1m (3ft) is a active dac direct attach copper cable with QSFP28 to QSFP28, supporting 100Gbps links over a length of 1m (3ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. It is a cost effective, low latency interconnect for 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks, and complies with QSFP28 MSA, SFF-8665.

The 100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ Active DAC, 1m (3ft) connects QSFP28 to QSFP28 ports at 100Gbps in 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks. This unit is provided in 3 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 5m (16ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. Our factory programs the compatibility coding for your switch brand before shipment and verifies each unit on real host equipment.

This product is designed and tested to comply with QSFP28 MSA, SFF-8665. It plugs into any standards-based QSFP28 to QSFP28 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.

This assembly is listed under part number QSFP-100G-AC01. The cable is supplied in 1m (3ft), 3m (10ft) and 5m (16ft). Custom lengths beyond the standard range are available on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.

Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.

We ship to customers around the world every week. Express couriers handle most orders door to door in a few days; larger consignments go by air or sea to keep freight costs down. Tracking information is provided for every shipment, and we are flexible on shipping accounts and forwarders.

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.

Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.
