Cisco compatible QSFP-100G-AOC7M Description
EdgeOptic's QSFP-100G-AOC7M compatible is a Cisco-coded 7m 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 and InfiniBand EDR, with the optical fiber pre-terminated at both ends for 7m reach over OM3 multimode fiber. That makes it a clean fit for top-of-rack to leaf, server-to-switch, and short data center interconnects where a sealed, lightweight optical link is preferred over copper or separate transceivers and patch fiber.
The cable runs at 850nm using VCSEL transmitters and PIN photodiode receivers, supporting 100G Ethernet (103.125 Gbps) and InfiniBand EDR (100 Gbps) across data rates from 96.97 to 112.2 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.
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
Which Cisco switches support the QSFP-100G-AOC7M?
The QSFP-100G-AOC7M is compatible with the Cisco platforms that accept the genuine Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC7M, including Cisco Nexus 9000 and 3000 series switches. EdgeOptic codes it with Cisco-recognized EEPROM, so it links up without the service unsupported-transceiver command. Confirm 100G QSFP28 AOC support for your exact switch model and port group in Cisco's transceiver compatibility matrix.
