Frequently Asked Questions about 100G DAC/AOC Cables
What is a 100G DAC cable?
A 100G DAC cable is a direct attach copper cable designed for short-distance 100 Gigabit Ethernet connections. It typically uses QSFP28 connectors on both ends and provides a low-cost, low-power solution for data center interconnect applications.
What is a 100G AOC cable?
A 100G AOC cable is an active optical cable that uses optical transmission technology with integrated optical components to support longer-distance 100GbE connections compared with traditional copper DAC cables.
What is the difference between 100G DAC and 100G AOC cables?
100G DAC cables use copper conductors and are ideal for short-reach, low-cost connections, while 100G AOC cables use optical fiber technology to provide longer transmission distances, better flexibility, and improved signal performance.
What applications use 100G DAC/AOC cables?
100G DAC/AOC cables are widely used in data center switches, servers, storage systems, AI infrastructure, cloud computing networks, and high-performance computing environments requiring high-speed interconnects.
Are 100G DAC/AOC cables compatible with QSFP28 ports?
Yes. Most 100G DAC and AOC cables are designed with QSFP28 interfaces and support 100GbE networking applications based on industry-standard Ethernet specifications.
How do I choose between a 100G DAC and AOC cable?
Selection depends on transmission distance, power consumption requirements, installation environment, flexibility requirements, and overall network deployment cost. DAC cables are typically preferred for short connections, while AOC cables are suitable for longer reach and higher flexibility requirements.
