Outstanding performance: The BlueOptics BO282803L5M 5 metre active optical cable (AOC) from CBO features a four-channel 100 Gb/s QSFP28 transceiver connection for distances of up to 100 metres over multimode fibre optic cable. The BlueOptics BO282803L5M 5 metre active optical high-performance cables have a flame-retardant LSZH fibre sheath (halogen-free, with low smoke emission in case of fire).

Versatile applications: Compared to Direct Attach Twinaxial cable solutions (DAC), the hot-pluggable active optical cables are more flexible and lighter. The QSFP28 connectors have a built-in E/O and O/E converter that transforms the electrical signal into an optical signal. This signal is converted back into an electrical signal and output at the other end of the active optical cable. The QSFP28 transceiver connections of each BlueOptics BO282803L5M 5 metre active optical cable are manufactured according to MSA standards, taking into account the SFF-8436 and IEEE 802.3ba specifications.
