With the rapid development of big data and cloud computing and the increasing demand for data transmission, the data center is moving towards the direction of 100G speed. As a necessity of short distance data transmission in 100G data center, 100g AOC active optical fiber cable can meet the application requirements of high density and high bandwidth. The 100G AOC active optical cable of ETU-LINK has many advantages, such as high transmission rate, long transmission distance, low energy consumption and easy to use. It can help communication equipment enjoy the great advantages of optical transmission. It is an ideal transmission cable in data center, consumer electronics and other fields.

Classification of 100G AOC active optical cables

1. 100Gbps QSFP28 to QSFP28 AOC active optical cables

The 100Gbps QSFP28 to QSFP28 AOC is a four channel full duplex active optical cable with QSFP28 connectors at both ends. The data transmission rate of each channel can reach 26G/s. The QSFP-100G-AOC active optical cable provided by ETU-LINK has the standard length of 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 50 and 70 meters for customers to choose.

2. 100G QSFP28 to 4x25G SFP28 AOC branch active optical cable

The 100G QSFP28 to 4x25G SFP28 AOC branch active optical cable has 100G QSFP28 connector at one end and four 25G SFP28 connectors at the other end. The maximum link length is 70m on OM3 MMF and 100m on OM4 MMF.

3. 100G QSFP28 to 2x50G QSFP28 AOC branch active optical cable

The 100G QSFP28 to 2x50G QSFP28 AOC are 100 meter multimode fiber (MMF) designed for optical interconnection links. Based on vertically integrated VCSEL array technology, QSFP28 MSA compatible high-density connector design is adopted. The 100G QSFP28 - 2x 50G QSFP28 AOC components are compact, lightweight and low-power.

Application scenarios of 100G AOC active optical cable

100g AOC active optical cable is widely used in data center computer room, high performance computing and storage area network.

Direct connection solution of 100G AOC active optical cable

The transmission distance of 100G data center is within 5-70m. Etu-link recommends 100G AOC active optical cable as the preferred scheme. Because of the high reliability of the 100g AOC active optical cable, and in the high-speed port mode, the device port density can be very high, which can improve the equipment integration. In addition, the interconnection cost of 100G AOC active optical cable is low, which helps to reduce the interconnection cost of 100G in data center.
