Overview
The Add-On ADD-Q28CIQ28DE-P0-5M is a 5-meter 100GBASE-CU QSFP28 direct attach copper cable. This passive cable is designed for short-reach, high-speed interconnects within racks or between adjacent racks, providing a cost-effective solution for 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in data centers and enterprise networks. It's engineered for compatibility with Dell networking equipment, ensuring seamless integration into existing infrastructure.
Compatibility
This ADD-Q28CIQ28DE-P0-5M cable is specifically tested and validated for compatibility with Dell's 100GbE QSFP28 ports found on switches and network interface cards. It is suitable for use with Dell networking platforms requiring 100GbE connectivity, such as select PowerSwitch series switches and compatible server NICs.
