BlueOptics Ruckus 100G-Q28-S28-C-0101 Compatible BlueLAN QSFP28 DAC Cable 1m

The BlueOptics Ruckus 100G-Q28-S28-C-0101 compatible BlueLAN QSFP28 Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable is a high-performance, passive twinax cable assembly designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet and InfiniBand EDR applications. This 1-meter cable provides a cost-effective, low-power solution for short-reach interconnects in data centers, high-performance computing (HPC), and enterprise networks.

Advantages

This DAC cable offers reliable connectivity with minimal power consumption (<0.5W) and is fully compliant with SFF-8665 (QSFP28 MSA) standards. Its passive copper design ensures low latency and zero signal degradation for distances up to 1 meter, making it ideal for server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections within racks.

Suitable for

• Data center top-of-rack and end-of-row cabling
• High-performance computing clusters
