Lenovo 4X97A11037 20 m Intel OPA QSFP28 Active Optical Cable | Low Power

Support longer-distance interconnects without the bulk of copper by using this Lenovo DCG server options active optical QSFP28 cable. At 20 m, it is built for deployments where equipment is separated by rack rows or where clean routing across cabinets is essential. The low-power design helps keep energy overhead in check while maintaining the optical characteristics needed for high-speed fabric connectivity. This cable is a strong fit for infrastructure teams working with Intel OPA 100 Series ecosystems and other compatible high-density server environments. QSFP28 connectivity provides a familiar enterprise interface for optical links, while the active optical construction helps preserve performance over a longer run than passive alternatives can comfortably handle. For procurement teams, the value is in buying exactly the reach required—no excess length, no unnecessary cable mass, and no compromise on the physical order of the installation. It is the kind of component that quietly improves the quality of the entire rack layout.
