## Summary description

Active Optical Cable (AOC) by CBO, model QSFP-100G-AOC-5M, provides a 100G QSFP link over a 5-meter OM optical assembly. Designed for short-reach high-speed interconnects between switches, routers or servers with QSFP ports. Offers low latency and electrical isolation compared to copper, simplifying rack-to-rack or within-rack connections.

## Long description

The AOC CBO QSFP-100G-AOC-5M is a 100G Active Optical Cable designed for short-reach high-speed interconnects. This 5 m OM optical assembly uses a QSFP form factor to connect network devices with QSFP ports, providing a fiber-based link that reduces electromagnetic interference and offers lower latency than comparable copper solutions. The cable is intended for rack-to-rack and within-rack connections where stable 100G throughput and signal integrity are required.
Advantages
The active optical construction provides electrical isolation and improved signal integrity over longer distances than copper direct attach cables. With a standardized QSFP interface and a 5 meter length, the cable supports high-density data center layouts and simplifies cabling by eliminating the need for transceivers and separate fiber patch leads. Its low latency and consistent 100G performance suit environments that require deterministic throughput and minimal signal loss.
Suitable for
 High-speed connections between switches with QSFP ports
 Server-to-switch interconnects in data centre racks
 Short-reach optical links in high-density network cabinets
 Environments requiring electrical isolation to reduce interference
Key specifications
 Data rate: 100 Gbps per cable
 Connector type: QSFP (QSFP+ / QSFP28 compatible form factor)
 Length: 5 meters
 Fiber type: multimode optical assembly (OM grade)
 Latency: low-latency optical transmission suitable for short-reach links
 Usage: active optical cable with integrated transceiver electronics
How to use
Install the AOC by plugging each QSFP end into the corresponding QSFP port on devices configured for 100G links. Ensure ports are powered and configured to accept an AOC link; port settings may require matching speed and lane configurations. Route the 5 m cable through the rack or cabinet without tight bends and avoid excessive stress on the connectors. Confirm link status via device LEDs or management interfaces and verify throughput with appropriate diagnostics or traffic tests.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Use the cable for short-reach connections up to 5 m inside racks or between adjacent racks, and verify compatibility with your switch or server vendor’s QSFP port firmware and cable support lists when deploying in production networks.
