Know before you buy
Active Optical Cables use fiber optics to transmit data, which allows for a lighter, thinner cable profile and better signal integrity over longer distances compared to traditional copper direct attach cables.
This cable is built to MSA standards and features guaranteed OEM compatibility, meaning it is designed to function seamlessly with any platform that adheres to standard QSFP+ port specifications.
No, this cable does not support Power over Ethernet. It is designed strictly for high-speed data transmission and cannot carry electrical power to connected devices.
Each cable is individually serialized, which helps you track, identify, and manage specific connections within high-density data center environments or complex network racks.
Yes, the cable is pre-terminated with QSFP+ connectors on both ends, allowing for immediate plug-and-play deployment without the need for additional assembly or specialized tools.
