Lenovo 100Gb QSFP28 AOC cable

This 20-metre active optical cable uses QSFP28 connectors to carry 100Gb Ethernet links between switches, routers or servers. The active design converts electrical signals to light inside the module ends, so the thin fibre run stays lightweight and immune to electromagnetic interference. It is built for high-density data-centre racks where copper reach falls short.

Plug-and-play fibre installation

Each end inserts directly into a standard QSFP28 port with no separate transceivers or patch cords required. The fixed length means you must measure the rack-to-rack path before ordering; excess slack cannot be coiled tightly without risking bend-radius damage. Dust caps should stay on until the moment of insertion to keep the optical faces clean.

Suited for 100Gb rack interconnects

Network engineers who need a single 20-metre 100Gb link without managing separate optics will find this cable simple and reliable. Buyers who require breakout configurations, different connector types or lengths outside 20 metres should look at other solutions.
