Juniper Networks OSFP-800G-AOC-5M Compatible 800G OSFP 8 x 100G PAM4 IHS/Finned Top Active Optical Cable, 5m (16ft)

Designed for hosts that recognize OSFP-800G-AOC-5M, this OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) cable delivers 800G transmission over a fixed 5m (16ft) assembly. Its AOC construction provides a factory-terminated active optical link with the optical engines and fiber integrated into the assembly.

Juniper platform documentation distinguishes straight QSFP28 DAC or AOC connections from DACBO and AOCBO breakout operation. On channelized systems, the host port must be configured for the required breakout mode. Match this HT compatible cable to the exact Juniper part number and the intended platform configuration.

This assembly uses OFNP jacket, minimum bend radius 30mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include OSFP MSA, CMIS Rev 4.0, SFF-8679, IEEE 802.3bs. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The optical engines and fiber are permanently integrated into this AOC. There are no detachable optical modules to clean or exchange. Handle the complete assembly by its connector housings and cable, and keep both ends matched to the same interface specification.

The 5m (16ft) length gives OSFP-800G-AOC-5M more freedom for adjacent-rack and row-end deployments. The integrated optical assembly should be supported along its route without tight bends or connector pull loads; the AOC specification and host support must still match the intended link.

OSFP-800G-AOC-5M occupies the middle of this family between OSFP-800G-AOC-3M at 3m (10ft) and OSFP-800G-AOC-7M at 7m (23ft). It adds 2m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 2m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

The listed modulation format is 8x 100G-PAM4. Both host interfaces must be configured for the same aggregate rate and lane arrangement. A connector that fits mechanically does not by itself guarantee that the remote port supports this encoding or breakout mode.

The rated power consumption is 14W Per End. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

Each OSFP-800G-AOC-5M compatible cable is powered up on a suitable test interface rather than checked only for continuity. We confirm the expected identification and observe optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Because operating systems can apply different qualification rules by hardware revision, the intended Juniper Networks platform should be included with the order.

Use part number OSFP-800G-AOC-5M for the 5m (16ft) assembly. For mixed-length projects, list each required part number and quantity separately so that every cable can be tested and packed according to its intended installation.

Every OSFP-800G-AOC-5M compatible assembly undergoes link testing, compatibility verification and visual inspection. The 5m (16ft) cable is coiled without exceeding its minimum bend radius, fitted with connector protection and packed in an anti-static bag or protective tray before cartoning. Project labels and packing lists are available for volume orders.
