The 100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ to 4x 25G SFP28 25G NRZ Active Breakout DAC, 1m (3ft) is a 100Gbps active copper cable for QSFP28 to 4x SFP28 connections in 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks. This unit is supplied in 5 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 9m (29ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request.

Compliance: QSFP28 MSA, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8665, SFF-8679, SFF-8472, SFF-8402. Every unit's EEPROM coding and link behavior are verified on real host equipment in our lab, so what arrives at your site is ready to use.

Part numbers vary by length, for instance QSFP-100G-4SAC01 for the shortest standard version. You can order this assembly in 1m (3ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft) and 9m (29ft). Non-standard lengths can be produced on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.

Standard products are held in stock and usually ship within one to three working days. We dispatch worldwide by DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS, and for bulk orders we arrange air or sea freight. Shipments can also be sent collect on your own courier account or delivered to your freight forwarder.

Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.

Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.

Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
