Lenovo 3 m 100G to 4x25G AOC Cable | QSFP28 to SFP28, Enterprise

Move 100G traffic into four 25G paths without adding conversion hardware or excess cable bulk. Lenovo’s 3 m breakout active optical cable is designed for short-reach data center links where port density, airflow, and clean routing matter. The QSFP28 end connects to a 100G uplink, while the four SFP28 ends feed downstream switches or servers at 25G each. Active optical construction helps maintain signal integrity across the 3 m span while keeping the cable lighter and easier to route than copper alternatives. That matters in crowded racks where bend management and front-to-back airflow can affect serviceability. For teams standardizing on 25G access with 100G aggregation, this cable supports a direct breakout topology that reduces the need for separate transceivers and patch assemblies. Use it where short, deterministic interconnects are preferred: top-of-rack to leaf switch, spine-to-leaf breakout, or server fan-out in high-density environments. It is a practical choice when you need predictable lane mapping, reduced cabling complexity, and a Lenovo-qualified path for mixed-speed Ethernet deployment.
