Add-On ADD-Q28CIQ28IN-P5M 5M QSFP28 Direct Attach Cable
Overview
The Add-On ADD-Q28CIQ28IN-P5M is a 5-meter direct attach copper cable designed for 100Gbps Ethernet connections. It provides a cost-effective, low-power solution for short-reach interconnects within racks or between adjacent racks, commonly found in data centers and high-performance computing environments. This cable directly addresses the need for high-bandwidth, reliable connectivity between network switches, servers, and storage devices.
Compatibility
This cable is specifically designed to be compatible with Intel 100CQQH2650 configurations. It utilizes the QSFP28 form factor, ensuring interoperability with network equipment that supports 100GBASE-CU standards and QSFP28 ports. Verify your network switch or server NIC QSFP28 port specifications to confirm direct attach copper support.
Installation Notes
QSFP28 cables require careful handling to avoid damage to the connector pins and the cable jacket. Ensure the port is clean and free of debris before insertion. The cable should be seated firmly until the retention mechanism engages. Avoid sharp bends or excessive tension on the cable, as this can degrade signal integrity over the 5-meter length.
