Aruba 100G QSFP28 to QSFP28 2m Active Optical Cable | 100G QSFP28

Maintain 100G connectivity across short-distance infrastructure with an Aruba active optical cable built for QSFP28-to-QSFP28 interconnects. The 2 m length is well suited to adjacent racks, top-of-rack switching, and dense equipment rows where precise cable management matters as much as throughput. Active optical cabling helps preserve signal quality at high speeds while avoiding the stiffness and weight of equivalent copper assemblies. That makes it easier to route cleanly through crowded cabinets, reduce strain on ports, and keep airflow paths open around critical hardware. For teams standardizing on Aruba switching and 100G uplinks, this cable fits the role of a dependable short-run interconnect that supports performance without adding unnecessary complexity. It is a practical choice when you need a direct, low-profile link between compatible QSFP28 ports and want to keep the rack serviceable as port density increases.
