The Juniper Networks JNP-QSFP28-AOC-30M works well with QSFP28 optical cables. These QSFP28 connectors are made for direct-attach connections instead of Multi-Mode Fibre (MMF). However, these AOCs do meet the standards set by QSFP28 MSA and RoHS-6, making sure the maintenance of environmental regulations is compatible. The alternative to discrete optical transceivers and patch cables, the ACOs appear to be the savior because of its lower budget and ability to make 100Gbps connections within racks and adjacent racks. However, these optical cables are not only light in weight but a better alternative to copper cables, enhancing cable management.

Moreover, the maximum data range is 100Gbps, while the minimum bend range is 30mm. The connector type is QSFP28 to QSFP28. It’s featured with <2.2W low-power and high density to make 100GB data transmission faster and smoother. On top of that, the optical cable is compatible with FS Box opening doors for the upgrade switches. This works perfectly with the Juniper Networks Switches, such as QFX services and EX series. 

Juniper Networks connect the switches using JNP-100G-AOC-30M cable incorporating 100G Ethernet and QSFP28 interface including QFX5100, QFX5110, QFX5200, QFX5210, QFX10000, EX9200 and EX4600 with 100G mode. This 30-meter cable is perfect for high-speed direct connections in data centers and other large buildings.

FAQs 

What is the difference between 100G AOC and DAC?

AOC uses optical fiber to cover long distances while DAC considers using copper cables for shorter distances, making it budget-friendly. 

What is a DAC cable used for it? 

It’s used for data transfer within the data center to cover short distances. 

What is the maximum length of the AOC cable?

It ranges from 30 meters to 100 meters.
