BlueOptics Q28-4S28-DAC-2M-AO-BL Compatible Avago QSFP28 to 4x SFP28 Passive Direct Attach Copper Breakout Cable, 2m, AWG26

The BlueOptics Q28-4S28-DAC-2M-AO-BL is a high-performance passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) breakout cable designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications. It provides a cost-effective and low-power solution for interconnecting QSFP28 ports to four SFP28 ports in data centers and high-performance computing environments.

Advantages

This cable offers a reliable and energy-efficient connection with zero power consumption, thanks to its passive design. It supports aggregate data rates of 100 Gbps, breaking out into four independent 25 Gbps lanes, making it ideal for high-density network architectures. The AWG26 gauge ensures flexibility and durability for easy cable management.
