Axiom AXG96918 100GBASE-AOC QSFP28 15 m

Move 100 GbE traffic across short rack-to-rack distances without the bulk of traditional copper assemblies. This 15 m QSFP28 active optical cable is designed for Cisco-compatible environments where clean cable management, predictable reach, and high-speed transport all matter. For dense infrastructure, the lighter profile of an AOC can make routing easier and reduce strain at the port. At 100GBASE speeds, link quality and physical handling both matter. An active optical cable helps deliver the reach needed for adjacent racks, top-of-rack to aggregation paths, and other short interconnects where a direct optical assembly is a better fit than a passive alternative. Cisco compatibility makes it easier to standardize in mixed or Cisco-based environments, while TAA compliance supports procurement workflows that require it. This is the kind of cable chosen when the network path is already defined and the priority is clean, dependable transport with minimal installation friction.
