NOKIA (Alcatel) compatible QSFP-100G-A20M Description
EdgeOptic's QSFP-100G-A20M compatible is a Nokia-coded 20m version of the EdgeOptic 100G-AOC-QSFP multi-vendor 100G QSFP28 active optical cable. It provides a point-to-point QSFP28-to-QSFP28 link for 100G Ethernet, with the optical fiber pre-terminated at both ends for 20m over OM3 multimode fiber. That suits Nokia 100G data center and aggregation links where a sealed, lightweight optical run is preferred over copper or separate transceivers and patch fiber.
The cable runs at 850nm using VCSEL transmitters and PIN photodiode receivers, carrying 100G Ethernet at 103.125 Gbps. Integrated DDM/DOM reports optical power, module temperature, bias current, and supply voltage through the QSFP28 MSA (SFF-8636 and SFF-8665) management interface. It draws +3.3V at up to 3.5W and operates from 0 to 70°C. The cable advertises host-side FEC capability through its QSFP28 management interface; configure FEC on the switch port per your platform's requirements.
EdgeOptic codes the QSFP-100G-A20M with Nokia-recognized EEPROM so it is identified correctly on Nokia hardware. Made to order with a two-week lead time. Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms and a lifetime warranty.
Frequently Asked Questions
