Frequently Asked Questions
What is an active optical cable and how does it differ from passive cables?
An active optical cable like the ENET QSFP-4X25G-AOC25M-K contains integrated electronics that amplify and regenerate signals, enabling longer distances and higher speeds compared to passive copper cables. This makes AOCs ideal for data center environments requiring 25-meter runs without signal degradation.
Is this QSFP28 cable compatible with Cisco equipment?
Yes, the ENET QSFP-4X25G-AOC25M-K-ENC is fully Cisco-compatible and works seamlessly with Cisco Nexus switches, UCS systems, and other industry-standard networking platforms supporting QSFP28 and 25G SFP28 interfaces.
What bandwidth does this 25G active optical cable provide?
This QSFP28 active optical cable delivers 103.12 Gb/s aggregate bandwidth across four 25G lanes, making it suitable for high-performance data center interconnects, storage area networks, and enterprise backbone connectivity.
Can I use this cable for 25-meter data center runs?
Yes, the 25-meter length is specifically designed for data center environments where longer cable runs are necessary. The active optical technology ensures signal integrity and reliable performance over the full 25-meter distance without attenuation.
