Applications
The 100G QSFP28 4x 25G NRZ to 4x 25G SFP28 25G NRZ Breakout AOC, 1m (3ft) connects QSFP28 to 4x SFP28 ports at 100Gbps in 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks. This unit is produced in 11 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 50m (164ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. For networks standardized on Cisco hardware, it is a drop-in equivalent of the QSFP-4SFP25G-AOC1M. The link runs QSFP28-4x 25G-NRZ SFP28-1x 25G-NRZ modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 100G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: QSFP28 MSA, SFP28 MSA. For projects standardized on Cisco hardware, this product replaces the QSFP-4SFP25G-AOC1M directly, with identical fit and function. 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.
Ordering Information
The part number depends on length, e.g. QSFP-100G-4SAO01 at the shortest standard length. This cable is available in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft), 30m (98ft) and 50m (164ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
OEM and Custom Orders
We have manufactured fiber optic connectivity products since 1995 and run our own production lines in Shenzhen. Beyond the standard catalog we build to order: special cable lengths, custom connector combinations, vendor-specific compatibility coding and private labeling. Send us your requirement and our engineers will quote a practical solution.
Worldwide Delivery
We ship to customers around the world every week. Express couriers handle most orders door to door in a few days; larger consignments go by air or sea to keep freight costs down. Tracking information is provided for every shipment, and we are flexible on shipping accounts and forwarders.
Quality Assurance
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
Package
Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.
