Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 100GBase-AOC active optical cable used for?
A 100GBase-AOC active optical cable is designed for high-speed data center interconnects, connecting switches, routers, and servers that require 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. The active optical design enables longer reaches than passive copper alternatives while maintaining superior signal quality and low latency for mission-critical applications.
Is this QSFP28 cable compatible with my Brocade network equipment?
Yes, the AddOn 100G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-0201-AO is specifically designed as a Brocade-compatible replacement for the original 100G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-0201 module. It provides plug-and-play compatibility with Brocade switches and infrastructure supporting QSFP28 connectors and 100GBase-AOC standards.
What are the advantages of a 20-meter active optical cable over copper alternatives?
Active optical cables offer superior performance over longer distances compared to copper. The 20-meter reach of this AOC eliminates signal degradation, reduces electromagnetic interference, and provides consistent 100 Gigabit performance across your data center fabric without the distance limitations of traditional copper cabling.
Does this cable meet TAA compliance requirements?
Yes, this AddOn active optical cable is TAA compliant, meeting Trade Agreements Act requirements for federal and government procurement. It qualifies for use in compliance-sensitive environments and government-funded infrastructure projects.
