100G QSFP28 Active Optical Cable

This 20 metre aqua cable uses QSFP28 connectors at both ends to deliver 100GBASE connectivity. It is an active optical assembly designed for short-range links between compatible network ports. The fibre construction keeps the cable thin and light for dense rack layouts.

Juniper compatible links in dense racks

Network engineers connecting Juniper switches or routers over 20 metres will find this cable a direct fit. Buyers needing longer reach, different vendor coding or copper-based QSFP28 should look at other options.

Questions about this item

What QSFP28 ports must my equipment provide for this 100GBASE-AOC cable?

Both ends need a QSFP28 male receptacle; the cable plugs directly into two such ports.

Will this 20m aqua cable work with legacy 28G lane switches I still run?

It is built for 100G links; older 28G equipment lacks the matching electrical interface.
