## Summary description

Active Optical Cable (AOC) CBO BlueOptics QSFP28 BO282803L10M delivers 100G connectivity over a 10-meter cable. Designed for high-speed data center and switch-to-switch links, it uses a QSFP28 connector and provides low latency and power-efficient optical transmission. Ideal for short-reach 100G interconnects, server racks and aggregation switches.

## Long description

AOC CBO BlueOptics QSFP28 BO282803L10M 100G is an active optical cable providing 100 Gigabit connectivity over a 10 m length. Engineered for high-density data center environments and switch-to-switch links, this QSFP28 form-factor cable converts electrical signals to optical for low-latency, power-efficient transmission across short reaches. The assembly is intended to simplify 100G interconnects between servers, top-of-rack switches and aggregation equipment while maintaining signal integrity and thermal efficiency.
Advantages
The active optical design reduces power consumption compared to equivalent copper DACs while supporting reliable 100G link performance. At 10 meters, the cable supports flexible rack-to-rack or intra-rack placement without introducing significant latency. The QSFP28 connector delivers compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP28 modules or ports designed for direct-attach optical interconnects. The optical medium provides immunity to electromagnetic interference, helps maintain signal quality over short distances and can simplify cable routing in dense installations.
Suitable for
100G switch-to-switch connections in data centers
Server-to-switch links within racks and between adjacent racks
Aggregation and spine-leaf network fabrics requiring short-reach 100G links
High-throughput computing clusters and storage interconnects
Key specifications
Nominal data rate: 100 Gigabit per second
Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
Connector: QSFP28 on both ends
Length: 10 meters
Optimized for short-reach interconnects in data center environments
Low-latency optical transmission and reduced power draw compared with copper alternatives
How to use
Install the QSFP28 connectors into compatible 100G QSFP28 ports on switches or servers, ensuring connectors are fully seated and latches engage. No separate transceivers or fiber patch cables are required; the AOC integrates optical transceivers in the cable assembly. Verify link status and port configuration on connected equipment and confirm that firmware and port settings support 100G operation. Handle the cable carefully, avoiding tight bends and excessive tension to preserve optical performance.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius. Use airflow-aware routing in racks to preserve cooling, and confirm interoperability with switch vendor documentation where vendor compatibility lists are available. Periodically inspect connectors for contamination and clean with appropriate optical cleaning tools if required.
