BlueOptics Ruckus 100G-Q28-Q28-C-00501 Compatible BlueLAN DAC QSFP28 Passive Twinax Copper Cable 0.5m (1.64ft) 30 AWG Black

The BlueOptics Ruckus 100G-Q28-Q28-C-00501 compatible BlueLAN DAC QSFP28 cable is a high-performance direct attach copper (DAC) solution designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GBASE-CR4) and InfiniBand EDR/HDR applications. This passive twinax copper cable delivers reliable, low-latency connectivity for data center interconnects, high-performance computing (HPC), and enterprise networking environments.

Advantages

This DAC cable offers a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative to optical transceivers for short-range connections. With a length of 0.5 meters (1.64 ft) and 30 AWG construction, it provides excellent signal integrity while consuming less than 0.5W of power. The passive design ensures zero additional power consumption, making it ideal for high-density deployments.
