Juniper QSFP28 100G DAC 50 CM Cable | 100 GbE, Direct Attach

Keep high-speed links short, stable, and easy to manage with Juniper’s QSFP28 100G DAC 50 CM cable. Designed for direct attach connections between compatible QSFP28 network ports, this 50 cm assembly is well suited to top-of-rack and adjacent-device deployments where optical transceivers are unnecessary. At 100 Gbit/s, it supports demanding east-west traffic patterns while helping reduce cost, power draw, and configuration overhead compared with fiber-based alternatives. The short 1.64 ft length is ideal for tightly packed racks, preserving airflow and reducing excess cable slack that can complicate maintenance. For infrastructure teams standardizing on Juniper switching, this cable provides a clean path to short-reach 100 GbE interconnects. It is a straightforward choice when you need dependable throughput between nearby devices and want to keep the physical layer simple, predictable, and easy to service.
