BlueOptics QSFP28 Active Optical Cable 50m Compatible with Ruckus E100G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-5001

The BlueOptics BO282803L50M is a high-performance QSFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications. It is fully compatible with the Ruckus E100G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-5001 and provides a reliable, low-power interconnect solution for data centers and high-performance computing environments. With a length of 50 meters, this cable supports 4 independent full-duplex channels at 25 Gbps each, delivering aggregate bandwidth of 100 Gbps.

Advantages

This Active Optical Cable offers significant advantages over traditional copper cabling, including longer reach, lighter weight, and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The LSZH jacket ensures safety in plenum spaces, and the hot-swappable design simplifies installation and maintenance. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) provides real-time performance data for proactive network management.
