Certified AOC Active Optical Cable NRZ

The QSFP DD AOCs operate up to 25Gb/s NRZ modulation and provide solutions up to 200Gb/s aggregate bandwidth, supporting 100meters over parallel multimode fiber. They are an ideal choice to be adopted for higher capacity networks and data center applications. AOCs are most often used for creating 3-30m short switch-to-switch or switch-to-GPU links. The Arista Compatible 200G QSFP56 to 2x 100G QSFP28 breakout Active Optical Cable operates over Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF), each operating at data rates of up to 53. 78Gbps per channel for QSFP28 with FEC support. This breakout cable is compliant. NVIDIA ® Mellanox ® LinkX ® Optics AOC cables are the lowest-cost way to create high-speed 25G–400G optical links in Ethernet switching networks and forNVIDIA GPU-based, artificial intelligence end-to-end systems. This creates a complete fiber assembly much like a DAC, but with distances that can reach up to fifty meters.
