Axiom 100GBASE-CR4 QSFP28 Passive DAC Cable Juniper Compatible 1m handheld pcs accessory
A 100G passive DAC cable with QSFP28 connectors for Juniper equipment
- Juniper-compatible 100G link — passive QSFP28 cable works with Juniper gear
- 100GBASE-CR4 direct attach — four 28G lanes deliver full bandwidth
- Passive copper design — no power draw or active electronics needed
- One-metre reach — short rack connection without excess cable
100GBASE-CR4 QSFP28 Passive DAC Cable
This Axiom cable provides a direct-attach copper link for 100GBASE-CR4 connections. It uses a passive QSFP28 interface and is coded for Juniper equipment. The one-metre length suits rack-to-rack or adjacent-switch links in a data-centre environment.
Capacity and headroom
The passive design carries 100 Gbps over four 28 Gbps lanes without external power. It handles short-reach, high-density aggregation where active optics are not required. The cable reaches its limit beyond the rated passive distance, so longer runs need active or optical alternatives. Buyers needing extended reach or breakout configurations should consider other solutions.

Questions about this item
Will this 100GBASE-CR4 QSFP28 passive DAC cable link correctly with my older 28 Gbps SFP28 ports?
No, the QSFP28 form factor and 100 Gbps signalling are not compatible with 28 Gbps SFP28 ports; you need a QSFP28-to-SFP28 breakout or a native SFP28 DAC instead.
How can I verify the cable is operating at its rated 100 Gbps after installation?
Check the switch or router interface counters for a 100 Gbps link speed, zero CRC errors and clean FEC statistics on the QSFP28 ports.
