## Summary description

Active Optical Cable (AOC) CBO QSFP-100G-AOC-5M provides a 100G link between QSFP ports over a 5-meter optical cable. Designed for high-speed data center interconnects and switch-to-switch or server-to-switch connections, it delivers low power consumption and reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper cabling. Ideal for short-reach 100G deployments where a factory-terminated, plug-and-play optical connection is required.

## Long description

The CBO AOC QSFP-100G-AOC-5M is a 100G active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends and a fixed length of 5 metres. It provides a factory-terminated, plug-and-play optical connection for short-reach links between QSFP ports, enabling high-bandwidth interconnects in data centre environments. Compared with copper alternatives, this optical assembly reduces electromagnetic interference and typically consumes less power while preserving signal integrity over the 5 m reach.
Advantages
This 100G QSFP to QSFP active optical cable delivers a simple, low-latency link with stable throughput suitable for switch-to-switch and server-to-switch connections. The factory-terminated design eliminates field splicing or attachment, ensuring consistent optical performance out of the box. The AOC format provides improved electromagnetic compatibility and lower weight compared with equivalent copper assemblies, and its 5 m length is convenient for short-reach top-of-rack or intra-rack cabling.
Suitable for
Data centre switch-to-switch 100G uplinks
Server-to-switch high-bandwidth connections within a rack
Short-reach optical trunks and aggregation links
Environments requiring low electromagnetic interference cabling
Key specifications
Nominal data rate: 100 Gigabit Ethernet
Connector type: QSFP to QSFP
Physical format: Active Optical Cable (AOC), factory-terminated
Cable length: 5 metres
Typical application: short-reach intra-rack and inter-rack links
Power consumption: low relative to equivalent copper direct-attach cables
EMC behaviour: reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper cabling
How to use
Install the CBO AOC QSFP-100G-AOC-5M by inserting each QSFP connector into compatible QSFP ports on networking equipment while the devices are powered according to the vendor’s guidelines. The cable is factory-terminated and requires no field assembly. Verify link status through the connected devices’ management interfaces and ensure port settings (speed, lane configuration) match the intended 100G operation. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, use this AOC for short-reach links up to 5 m within racks or between adjacent racks, confirm QSFP port compatibility with your switches or servers, and follow equipment vendor instructions for port configuration and firmware. Avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; store and handle the cable by the connector housings when plugging or unplugging.
