Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 200GBASE-AOC cable used for?
A 200GBASE-AOC active optical cable is designed for high-speed data center interconnections, connecting switches, servers, and storage systems that require 200 Gigabit Ethernet performance. It's commonly used in enterprise data centers, cloud infrastructure, and high-performance computing environments where bandwidth and reliability are critical.
Why choose OM3 multimode fiber over single-mode?
OM3 multimode fiber offers cost-effective solutions for medium-distance deployments (up to 100 meters at 200G speeds) while maintaining excellent signal quality. It's ideal for intra-data-center connections and provides easier installation compared to single-mode alternatives, making it the preferred choice for most enterprise networks.
Is this QSFP56 AOC cable compatible with Mellanox equipment?
Yes, this ENET 200GBASE-AOC QSFP56 cable is fully certified and compatible with Mellanox switches and networking hardware. It integrates seamlessly with Mellanox's high-speed switching infrastructure, ensuring optimal performance and reliability in your network deployment.
What does LSZH jacket mean and why is it important?
LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket material is designed to minimize toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire, meeting international fire safety standards. This makes LSZH cables essential for enclosed spaces like data centers, server rooms, and buildings where fire safety compliance is mandatory.
