BlueOptics Networking 470-ACIJ Compatible BlueOptics AOC QSFP28 BO282703L10M

The BlueOptics Networking 470-ACIJ Compatible Active Optical Cable (AOC) is a high-performance QSFP28 interconnect solution designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications. With a length of 10 meters (32.8 feet), this cable provides reliable, low-latency connectivity for data centers, high-performance computing, and enterprise networks. It is fully compatible with 470-ACIJ designated systems and supports multi-vendor environments including Arista, Cisco, Juniper, Mellanox, HP, and Dell.

Advantages

This AOC offers significant advantages over traditional copper cabling, including lower weight, greater flexibility, and superior signal integrity over longer distances. The hot-pluggable QSFP28 connectors ensure easy installation and maintenance, while the LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket enhances safety in enclosed spaces. With power consumption under 2.5W per end and support for Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM), this cable enables efficient network management and troubleshooting.
