The Juniper QSFP-100G-DAC-50CM is a direct attach copper (DAC) cable designed for high-speed interconnects between QSFP28-equipped switches, routers, and line cards. This 0.5-meter passive cable supports 100Gbps throughput and features QSFP28 connectors on both ends, making it ideal for short-reach data center and enterprise network deployments where low latency and cost-effective connectivity are priorities. Compatible with Juniper QFX, MX, and PTX platforms as well as third-party equipment supporting QSFP28 standards, this cable eliminates the need for active optics in nearby equipment racks. Typical applications include fabric interconnects, chassis-to-fabric connections, and ToR switch uplinks.
