QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC-100G-AOC-3M10FT 100G QSFP28 4 x 25G NRZ to 4 Duplex LC 25G NRZ Active Optical Breakout Cable, 3m (10ft)

The QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC-100G-AOC-3M10FT cable offers a direct QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC connection at 100Gbps. Its 3m (10ft) length and AOC construction are intended for multi-vendor equipment, with no separate transceiver-and-patch-cord assembly required.

The listed modulation format is QSFP28-4x 25G-NRZ Duplex LC-1x 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.

The QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC configuration divides the high-speed interface into multiple lower-speed connections. Verify the upstream lane assignment, downstream port speeds and breakout setting on the host before connecting the assembly. Each branch must attach to the correct remote interface.

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 3m (10ft), this assembly can bridge non-aligned ports or adjacent racks while remaining a single direct-attach link. Support longer horizontal runs with suitable cable management and preserve space for cooling and future maintenance.

QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC-100G-AOC-3M10FT occupies the middle of this family between QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC-100G-AOC-1M3FT at 1m (3ft) and QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC-100G-AOC-5M16FT at 5m (16ft). 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 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.

This assembly uses OFNP jacket, minimum bend radius 20mm. 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 SFF-8436, SFF-8431. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The assembly is configured for equipment that recognizes QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC-100G-AOC-3M10FT. Before shipment, we inspect both connectors and verify identification, link establishment and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Host hardware and firmware revisions can affect third-party cable acceptance, so customers can provide the equipment model and software release for a pre-order compatibility review.

When ordering, specify QSFP28 to 4 duplex LC-100G-AOC-3M10FT, cable length 3m (10ft) 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.

Before packing, our team checks the cable jacket, connector boots, latches and identification of each assembly. The cable is then secured in a loose coil and protected against dust and connector impact. Neutral packaging, customer part-number labels and project-specific carton lists can be supplied on request.

Available stock is usually packed and handed to the carrier within one to three working days. Delivery can be arranged by international express, air cargo or sea freight, with tracking details supplied after dispatch. Freight-collect shipments and delivery to a customer warehouse or forwarder can also be coordinated.
