HP compatible 845412-B21 Description

EdgeOptic's 845412-B21 compatible is an HPE-coded 10m 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 10m over OM3 multimode fiber. That suits HPE 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 845412-B21 with HPE-recognized EEPROM so it is identified correctly on HPE hardware. Stocked in the EU and ships the next business day. Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms and a lifetime warranty.
