Axiom R0Z28A-AX 100GBASE-AOC QSFP28 15 m

Move 100 GbE traffic farther without adding the bulk and bend constraints of traditional copper. This Axiom active optical cable is designed for Aruba-compatible QSFP28 environments and delivers a 15 m reach for inter-rack and adjacent-row connections where clean routing matters. Active optical cabling is a strong fit when you need predictable signal performance, lighter cable management, and less strain on front-panel ports in dense infrastructure. Compared with short passive options, an AOC gives you more placement flexibility while helping maintain a tidy airflow path in high-port-count switches and servers. Use it where 100G links must span cabinets, connect aggregation layers, or support storage and compute fabrics with minimal clutter. The integrated optical design reduces the need for separate transceivers and patch assemblies, which can simplify procurement and deployment planning. For teams standardizing on Aruba-compatible hardware, this cable offers a direct path to cleaner 100G connectivity at a practical 15 m length.
