Dell QSFP28 to QSFP28 100GbE Active Optical Cable (AOC) 30M AOC-QSFP28-100G-30M 0NW8DM
Description
The Dell AOC-QSFP28-100G-30M (Dell Part Number: 0NW8DM) is a high-performance 100GbE QSFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed for high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity in modern data centers, enterprise networks, cloud infrastructure, and high-performance computing environments.
Unlike passive copper DAC cables, this Active Optical Cable (AOC) utilizes integrated optical transceivers and fiber optics to support longer-distance connections while maintaining excellent signal integrity and reducing cable bulk. With a 30-meter (98.4 ft) reach, it is ideal for inter-rack and row-to-row deployments where traditional copper cables are not practical.
The cable features QSFP28 connectors on both ends and supports data rates up to 100GbE, making it an excellent solution for connecting switches, servers, storage systems, and high-speed network adapters.
