100G QSFP28 direct-attach cable
This 5 m direct-attach cable carries 100 Gbit/s between two QSFP28 ports. It is built for Aruba 8400X switches and other network devices that accept the QSFP28 form factor. The passive copper assembly requires no external power or optical transceivers. It ships new in multi-colour finish.
Suits short-reach switch uplinks.
The 9.84 ft length fits adjacent racks or in-row connections inside a single cabinet. Installations that need longer reach, fibre media or active optical cables should choose a different cable type. Environments requiring ruggedised outdoor jackets are also outside the intended use.
100 Gbit/s over passive copper at 5 m
The single decisive specification is the 100 Gbit/s data rate delivered over a 5 m passive copper assembly. If the link budget or distance calls for optical transmission, this DAC will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 100 Gbit/s link is active after connecting the JL307A cable?
Check the switch port LEDs or the management interface for a 100 Gbit/s link status and zero errors on both QSFP28 ports.
What comes with the JL307A and what must I source separately?
The box contains the 5 m QSFP28-to-QSFP28 DAC cable only; compatible Aruba 8400X switches or other QSFP28 network devices are purchased separately.
Which version of the X241 DAC should I choose for an Aruba 8400X switch?
Select the JL307A model, a 5 m QSFP28-to-QSFP28 direct-attach cable rated for 100 Gbit/s and listed as compatible with the Aruba 8400X Switch Series.
