Know before you buy
Active Optical Cables are significantly lighter and more flexible than copper cables, making them easier to manage in high-density rack environments. Because they use fiber optics, they also support longer distances—like this 50-meter cable—without the signal degradation issues common in copper at that length.
Yes, this cable is MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compliant, which ensures it is designed to interoperate seamlessly with standard QSFP28 ports on most major networking hardware brands.
Yes, this product is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, meaning it meets the necessary manufacturing requirements for use in U.S. government and federal agency contracts.
No, this is a plug-and-play solution. It comes pre-programmed and tested to function exactly like the original manufacturer's cable, so you can simply connect it to your devices and it will be recognized immediately.
The lifetime limited warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product. If the cable fails due to a manufacturing defect, AddOn will replace or repair it, providing long-term reliability for your network infrastructure.
