Active Optical Cable CBO for Huawei 100G QSFP28 10m (model 100G-QSFP28-AOC10M-HU)

BlueOptics Active Optical Cable CBO for Huawei 100G QSFP28, 10 m, model 100G-QSFP28-AOC10M-HU provides a 100 Gigabit optical direct-attach solution for high-speed links between servers, switches and data center equipment. The cable implements QSFP28 form-factor transceivers integrated into an optical fiber assembly, enabling plug-and-play connectivity with Huawei QSFP28 ports. With a 10-meter length and low-latency optical transmission, this AOC is intended for rack-to-rack and in-rack interconnects where consistent 100Gbps bandwidth and simplified cable management are required.

Advantages

The Active Optical Cable offers native 100G throughput while eliminating the need for separate transceiver modules and fiber patch cords. Its integrated design reduces connector density and heat generation at the equipment front while providing electrical-equivalent performance over optical medium. Compatibility with Huawei QSFP28 interfaces ensures straightforward installation and interoperability in mixed-vendor environments. The 10 m reach supports flexible topology planning without intermediate patch panels for many data center layouts.

Suitable for

• Rack-to-rack 100Gbps connections in data centers
• In-rack high-density interconnects between servers and top-of-rack switches
• Colocation facilities and enterprise backbone links requiring low-latency 100G
• Short-reach optical links where simplified cable management is desired

Key specifications

• Interface: QSFP28 to QSFP28 optical active cable
• Data rate: 100 Gigabit per second
• Length: 10 metres
• Transmission medium: multimode/mode-specified optical fiber within AOC assembly
• Latency: low-latency optical transmission suitable for high-performance networking
• Form factor: integrated QSFP28 AOC with factory-terminated connectors

How to use

Install the AOC by inserting each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on Huawei equipment until the latch clicks. Ensure both ends are seated and that host ports are powered and configured for 100G operation. No additional transceivers or patch cables are required. For best results, route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive strain, and verify link status via the host device management interface after insertion.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housings and maintain the manufacturer's minimum bend radius. Use with compatible Huawei QSFP28 ports and confirm firmware or compatibility notes in your switch or server documentation when integrating into existing infrastructures. Store unused cables coiled without sharp kinks and avoid exposure to liquids or extreme temperatures.
