Description:
The Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC2M is an active optical cable designed for high-speed data transmission over short distances. It uses lasers to convert electrical signals to optical signals and transmit them over multi-mode fiber. This cable is ideal for connecting devices within a rack or across adjacent racks in data centers, high-performance computing environments, and enterprise networks.
Here are some additional details about the Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC2M:
Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF): MMF is a type of fiber optic cable that can transmit light over multiple paths. This makes it more forgiving of bends and imperfections than single-mode fiber, but it also limits the maximum reach of the cable.
Hot-swappable: The QSFP-100G-AOC2M can be inserted and removed from a device while it is powered on, allowing for easy upgrades and maintenance.
Compliance: This cable is compliant with QSFP28 MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of networking equipment.
Things to Consider:
Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC2M is a Cisco branded product, but there are also third-party compatible AOCs available that may be more cost-effective.
While the maximum reach is listed as 2 meters, some third-party compatible AOCs may offer slightly longer or shorter lengths.
Be sure to check the compatibility information for your specific networking devices before purchasing a QSFP-100G-AOC2M cable.
