The listed modulation format is 4x 25G-NRZ to 4x 25G-NRZ. 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.

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 100G Ethernet. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE 802.3 bm, SFF-8665. 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.

At 1m (3ft), QSFP-100G-D-AOC-1M is a practical choice for direct connections within one rack. Route the cable along the intended management path rather than pulling it diagonally across adjacent connectors, and leave enough clearance for insertion, removal and front-panel airflow.

QSFP-100G-D-AOC-1M occupies the middle of this family between QSFP-100G-D-AOC-50CM at 0.5m (2ft) and QSFP-100G-D-AOC-2M at 2m (7ft). It adds 0.5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 1m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

The rated power consumption is <2.2W. 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 QSFP-100G-D-AOC-1M 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 H3C platform should be included with the order.

When ordering, specify QSFP-100G-D-AOC-1M, cable length 1m (3ft) and the host platform. This allows our team to verify both the physical assembly and the compatibility requirement before production. Neutral labeling and customer packing lists can be arranged for volume orders.

Quality control includes connector appearance, cable identification and functional verification. Packing materials are selected to keep the connector housings and cable boots from taking impact during transport, and the coil is not compressed into an undersized bundle. Volume orders can include customer-specific labels and packing documentation.

Stock items are generally dispatched within one to three working days after order confirmation. DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT and EMS are available for international delivery; larger consolidated orders can move by air or sea freight. Customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
