Active Optical Cable
100 Gbps Active Optical Cable and
100 Gbps to 4 x 25 Gbps Breakout Active Optical Cable
ET7402-AOC-xM and ET7402-25AOC-xM
The ET7402-AOC-xM is a 5-100m active optical cable with one QSFP28 to one QSFP28 100G connectors. The
ET7402-25AOC-xM is a 5-100m breakout active optical cable with one QSFP28 connector and four SFP28 25G
connectors. The active optical cables are 100G hot pluggable cables that support Infiniband and Ethernet data
transmission. The cables provide parallel interconnects—4 transmitting and 4 receiving data lanes—and support
distances up to 100 meters. The active optical cables are composed of multi-channel optical transceivers at both
ends and multimode fiber cable in between. This integrated optical module solution removes the complicated
optical fiber interface and replaces it with a friendly and intuitive electrical-to-electrical interface. The
ET7402-AOC-xM/ET7402-25AOC-xM is designed to meet the requirements of high speed, high density, and low
power consumption for applications in today's data centers.
