| Product Description |
|---|
This active fiber splitter cable is built for breaking a single 200Gb/s InfiniBand HDR link into two separate 100Gb/s QSFP28 outputs. It's commonly found in data centers and high-performance computing environments where bandwidth needs to be efficiently divided without compromising signal quality. Often used by network engineers and system administrators, it supports setups requiring multiple 100Gb/s connections from a single high-speed source. Its active design ensures reliable performance over the 20-meter length, making it suitable for medium-range fiber runs within racks or between adjacent racks. Key Features
This cable is typically deployed in tightly packed data center racks where space and cable management are critical. By splitting a high-speed link into two, it enables more flexible network designs and efficient use of existing fiber infrastructure. It plays a practical role in scaling network capacity without adding extra fiber runs, helping maintain clean and organized cabling setups. |
