Aruba 100G QSFP28 to QSFP28 30 m Active Optical Cable

Move 100 GbE traffic across the room with less cable bulk and more routing control. This Aruba 100G QSFP28 to QSFP28 active optical cable is built for 30 m links, giving infrastructure teams the reach needed for rack-to-rack and row-to-row connections without the stiffness and distance limits of short copper assemblies. Active optical cabling is a strong fit when you need high-speed transport with easier handling in dense environments. The QSFP28 interface supports modern 100G deployments, while the optical design helps keep pathways cleaner and more manageable in switches, aggregation points, and top-of-rack architectures. For enterprise buyers, the value is in fit and function: a cable designed for 100G optics, a practical 30 m span, and Aruba sourcing for environments that standardize on vendor-qualified infrastructure. It is the kind of component that earns its place in premium networks by reducing installation friction and supporting disciplined physical design. Choose it when the link budget, cable reach, and rack layout all need to align without compromise.
