Product information

Description

The StarTech LOOPBACKPLUG100G is a professional fiber cable tester engineered for loopback testing of QSFP28 100G network interfaces. This compact, silver-colored module is designed to verify the functionality of high-speed network ports and transceivers, ensuring reliable performance in demanding data center and enterprise network environments. By simulating a network connection, it allows for precise diagnostics of connectivity and signal integrity within 100G infrastructure.

Advantages

This loopback tester provides a straightforward and efficient method for troubleshooting high-speed network hardware. Its robust design ensures consistent performance during testing procedures, helping to identify potential issues with transceivers or ports before they impact network operations. The module is fully compliant with TAA, RoHS, and CE standards, making it a dependable tool for professional IT technicians and network administrators who require accurate verification of 100G fiber optic links.

Suitable for

Testing QSFP28 100G network ports
Verifying transceiver functionality
Data center network diagnostics
Enterprise network troubleshooting

When it may not be suitable

This device is specifically designed for QSFP28 100G interfaces and will not function with other connector types such as SFP+ or QSFP+. It is intended for loopback testing purposes only and cannot be used to extend network cables or bridge connections between different devices.

Key specifications

Product type: Fiber cable tester
Supported connector: QSFP28
Test type: Loopback testing
Color: Silver
Weight: 0.038 kg
Dimensions: 18.8 mm x 126 mm x 13.3 mm

How to use

To use the loopback tester, simply insert the module directly into the QSFP28 port of the network equipment or transceiver you wish to test. Once connected, the device creates a closed loop, allowing the network interface to send and receive its own signals. You can then use your network management software or diagnostic tools to monitor the link status and verify signal integrity, confirming that the port or transceiver is operating correctly.

What to consider before purchase

Ensure your hardware utilizes the QSFP28 interface
Verify that your diagnostic software supports loopback testing
Check if your testing requirements are limited to 100G speeds

Usage recommendations: Always handle the fiber optic module with care to avoid damaging the connector pins. Ensure the port is clean and free of debris before insertion to maintain optimal signal quality during testing.
