## Summary description

Active optical cable (AOC) CBO QSFP28-100G-AOC-5M is a QSFP28 100G, 5-meter high-speed interconnect for networking equipment. It provides a fixed, plug-and-play 100 Gigabit link between compatible QSFP28 ports for switches, routers and network cards. Ideal for short-reach data center connections, it reduces power and space compared with separate transceivers and fiber assemblies.

## Long description

The AOC CBO QSFP28-100G-AOC-5M active optical cable is a 5-metre QSFP28 100G interconnect designed for high-density data center and enterprise networking environments. This plug-and-play cable establishes a fixed 100 Gigabit Ethernet link between compatible QSFP28 ports on switches, routers and network interface cards, offering a compact alternative to separate transceivers and fibre patchcords. Its integrated optical transceivers eliminate the need for additional modules and simplify cabling for short-reach connections.
Advantages
This active optical cable delivers full-duplex 100G throughput with low latency and consistent signal quality over a 5 m reach. The integrated design reduces power consumption and frees up front-panel space compared with pluggable transceiver plus fibre assemblies. Being hot-pluggable and vendor-compatible with QSFP28 ports, it simplifies installation and maintenance while providing predictable performance for demanding network fabrics.
Suitable for
Short-reach server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections in data centers
High-density top-of-rack aggregation and spine-leaf architectures
Connecting 100G network interface cards (NICs) to switches or routers
Environments where reduced power, space savings and simplified cabling are priorities
Key specifications
Interface: QSFP28 to QSFP28 compatible
Nominal bandwidth: 100 Gigabit per second (full duplex)
Cable type: Active optical cable with integrated transceivers
Length: 5 metres
Typical reach: short-reach campus and data centre links
Connector form factor: QSFP28 compliant housing
Latency: low, suitable for high-performance Fabrics
How to use
Install the cable by inserting each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your networking devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices support QSFP28 100G links and that firmware or driver compatibility is met where required. The module is hot-pluggable; devices will typically negotiate the link automatically. Verify link status and performance via the switch or NIC management interface after installation.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive torsion; observe the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Use the 5 m active optical cable for intra-rack or short inter-rack connections where 100G density is needed. Confirm QSFP28 compatibility with your hardware and keep device firmware updated to ensure full interoperability.
