Ruckus Wireless 100GBase QSFP28 DAC

This Ruckus Wireless E100G-QSFP-QSFP-P-0101 is a 100GBase direct attach cable built for short-range links between switches, routers or servers. It targets network engineers who need a factory-coded passive copper assembly for 100 GbE ports in data-centre racks.

3.3 ft QSFP28-to-QSFP28 passive reach

The single decisive spec is the 3.3 ft length on passive copper with QSFP28 connectors at both ends. That distance fixes the maximum rack-to-rack or intra-rack span; any longer run would require an active or optical cable instead.

Tool-free QSFP28 latching, watch the bend radius

Installation is a simple push-pull into matching QSFP28 cages — no drivers or configuration required. The common failure point is exceeding the minimum bend radius of the copper twinax, which degrades signal integrity and can snap conductors inside the jacket.

Questions about this item

What does the 100GBase rating mean for real-world throughput on this cable?

The 100GBase rating indicates the cable supports 100 gigabits per second signalling when connected to compatible QSFP28 ports.

How does the passive QSFP28 interface limit link distance?

Passive copper QSFP28 cables such as this 3.3 ft assembly are typically used for rack-to-rack or adjacent-switch links up to about 5 metres.

What physical clearance does the QSFP28 connector need on each end?

Each QSFP28 plug requires a standard QSFP28 cage with the usual latch clearance; the 3.3 ft copper cable adds minimal bend-radius demand.
