## Summary description

Active Optical Cable (AOC) CBO BlueOptics QSFP28 BO282803L5M provides 100G connectivity over a 5-meter multimode link. Designed for QSFP28 ports, this pre-terminated cable delivers high-speed data transmission for switches, routers, and servers in data centers and high-performance networking environments. It simplifies installation and reduces signal loss compared with long copper runs.

## Long description

The AOC cable CBO BlueOptics QSFP28 BO282803L5M 100G 5m is an active optical cable engineered for short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects. This pre-terminated QSFP28-to-QSFP28 link supports 100 Gigabit Ethernet over a 5-metre multimode connection, intended for use in data center top-of-rack, server-rack and switch-to-switch cabling. The active optical design reduces insertion loss and electromagnetic interference compared with long copper assemblies, while offering a compact, low-power solution for high-performance switching and routing equipment.
Advantages
The cable provides reliable 100G throughput with low latency and stable signal integrity across a 5 m multimode path. Pre-terminated QSFP28 connectors eliminate field termination and simplify installation, reducing deployment time and human error. As an optical link, the AOC reduces heat generation and susceptibility to electrical noise versus comparable copper solutions, and it is suitable for dense rack environments where flexibility and space savings matter.
Suitable for
 Top-of-rack and spine-leaf data center interconnects
 Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch 100G links
 High-performance computing clusters and storage networks
 Environments requiring compact, low-power cabling with minimal electromagnetic interference
Key specifications
 Data rate: 100 Gigabit Ethernet
 Connector type: QSFP28 to QSFP28 (pre-terminated)
 Link length: 5 metres over multimode fiber
 Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
 Typical use: Short-reach data center and network interconnects
 Compatibility: Designed for equipment with QSFP28 ports supporting 100G
How to use
Install the cable by inserting each QSFP28 connector into compatible QSFP28 ports on the source and destination devices, ensuring connectors are fully seated. No field termination is required. Verify link status and speed on the devices' management interfaces and monitor for any error counters during initial operation. Follow standard data center handling practices: avoid tight bends, maintain recommended bend radius, and keep the cable free from kinks and mechanical stress.
Usage recommendations
For reliable long-term performance, route the AOC within cable channels or management trays to prevent physical damage; avoid exposure to high temperatures and direct mechanical strain. Confirm firmware and transceiver compatibility of networking devices when deploying high-speed links and test the connection under expected traffic loads before moving to production.
