Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 400GBASE active optical cable used for?
A 400GBASE active optical cable is designed for ultra-high-speed data transmission in modern data centers and enterprise networks. It connects network switches, routers, and storage systems at 400 Gb/s, enabling rapid data movement for cloud infrastructure, AI workloads, and high-performance computing applications.
Why choose QSFP-DD connectors for 400G connectivity?
QSFP-DD connectors provide double-density port capacity, allowing operators to deploy 400 Gb/s connections in the same physical footprint as earlier-generation modules. This maximizes switch port utilization and reduces overall infrastructure costs in space-constrained data center environments.
How does OM3/OM4 multimode fiber compare to single-mode for 400G?
OM3/OM4 multimode fiber is ideal for shorter distances (up to 100 meters) and offers cost advantages over single-mode solutions. The ENET 5-meter active optical cable leverages multimode fiber's reliability and affordability while delivering full 400 Gb/s performance for intra-rack and adjacent-rack connectivity.
Is the ENET AOC-D-D-400G-5M-ENC compatible with my existing network equipment?
Yes, the QSFP-DD form factor ensures broad compatibility with modern switches and network adapters supporting 400GBASE standards. Verify your equipment's port specifications before deployment to ensure seamless integration.
