BlueOptics Synology QSFP-AOC-7M Compatible Active Optical Cable QSFP28 7m

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-SG-BO is a high-performance Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed as a compatible replacement for the Synology QSFP-AOC-7M. This cable integrates QSFP28 connectors on both ends, delivering 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over a 7-meter length. Ideal for data center interconnects and high-performance computing environments, it ensures reliable, low-latency data transmission with minimal power consumption.

Advantages

This Active Optical Cable offers significant advantages over traditional copper cabling, including longer reach, lighter weight, and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The hot-pluggable design simplifies installation and maintenance, while the LSZH jacket ensures safety in confined spaces. With MSA compliance, it guarantees interoperability with a wide range of networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Data center interconnects requiring high bandwidth and low latency
