## Summary description

Active optical cable (AOC) CBO QSFP-100G-AOC-20M, 20 meters, designed for 100G QSFP ports. Provides a low-power, high-bandwidth optical link for switches, routers and servers within data centers and network racks. Suitable for short- to mid-range interconnects, simplifies connectivity without separate transceivers and reduces electromagnetic interference.

## Long description

The AOC CBO QSFP-100G-AOC-20M is a 20 metre active optical cable engineered for 100G QSFP ports, providing a direct, low-power optical connection between switches, routers and servers. Designed for data centre and rack environments, this BlueOptics cable delivers a high-bandwidth link without the need for separate transceivers, simplifying installation and reducing rack-side clutter while minimising electromagnetic interference.
Advantages
This active optical cable offers reduced power consumption compared with separate transceiver plus fibre assemblies, and it eliminates the need to manage individual transceivers and patch cords. The integrated design delivers consistent 100G throughput with low latency and stable signal integrity across the 20 metre distance. Its plug-and-play form factor speeds deployment in dense network environments and helps maintain cleaner cable management inside racks.
Suitable for
Interconnects between top-of-rack switches and aggregation switches within the same room or adjacent racks
Server-to-switch connections in high-performance computing and virtualization clusters
Short- to mid-range links inside data centres where 100G bandwidth is required
Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference and simplified connectivity are important
Key specifications
Connector type: QSFP form-factor compatible plug on both ends for 100G ports
Length: 20 metres suitable for rack-to-rack and in-room runs
Data rate: Supports 100 Gbit/s links
Cable type: Active optical cable with integrated transceiver electronics
Power profile: Low power consumption compared with discrete optical transceivers
Latency and signal: Designed for low-latency, high signal integrity over the specified distance
How to use
Install the cable by plugging each QSFP connector into the corresponding 100G QSFP port on network switches, routers or servers. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot‑plug guidelines from the equipment vendor if connecting to live ports. Verify link negotiation and interface status through the device management interface and check that the port is configured for the expected 100G operation mode. Handle the cable by the connector boots and avoid tight bends; maintain recommended bend radius and secure excess cable to avoid strain on connectors.
Usage recommendations
Use the cable for in-room or adjacent-rack 100G interconnects where a reliable, low-power optical link is required. Confirm compatibility with the equipment vendor's supported QSFP AOC modules and monitor link status after installation. Store and route the cable to prevent sharp bends and exposure to mechanical stress.
