Ubiquiti 100G Long-Range Direct Attach Cable, 5 m (UACC-AOC-QSFP28-5M)
The Ubiquiti 100G Long-Range Direct Attach Cable (UACC-AOC-QSFP28-5M) is a 5 m (16.4 ft) cable with a QSFP28 connector at each end and a 100 Gbps data rate. It is built on OM3 fibre at an 850 nm wavelength, with a thin 3.0 mm aqua PVC jacket, and Ubiquiti lists it as compatible with QSFP28 and QSFP+ interfaces. Use it for 100G links between devices that are too far apart for a short copper cable.
Quick Glance
Key Features
100 Gbps over QSFP28
Ubiquiti rates the cable for a 100 Gbps data rate, with a QSFP28 connector built onto each end, so a 100G link needs no separate transceivers or patch leads. Ubiquiti lists it as compatible with QSFP28 and QSFP+ interfaces.
OM3 fibre for longer runs
Ubiquiti calls this its long-range direct attach cable. It uses OM3 fiber at an 850 nm wavelength in an aqua PVC jacket only 3.0 mm (0.12") across, which keeps it easy to route through cable management, with a minimum bend radius of 30 mm (1.18").
5 m length, single unit
This listing is the 5 m (16.4 ft) length, sold as a single unit. Ubiquiti also makes the cable in 10, 20 and 30 m lengths for longer runs. Rated for an ambient operating temperature of 0 to 70° C (32 to 158° F).
Detailed Specifications
Specifications are taken from Ubiquiti's technical specifications and store listing for the 100G Long-Range Direct Attach Cable. Ubiquiti does not publish a weight for this cable.
Need-to-Know
- The connectors are part of the cable: plug one end into each QSFP28 port. No separate transceivers or fibre patch leads are needed.
- Ubiquiti lists the cable as compatible with QSFP28 and QSFP+ interfaces, and gives its supported data rate as 100 Gbps. It states no other data rate, so check with AtomOffice before planning a link to a QSFP+ port.
- This listing is the 5 m length. Ubiquiti also makes the same cable in 10, 20 and 30 m lengths; ask AtomOffice if you need one of those.
- Ubiquiti does not publish a weight for this cable. Keep bends no tighter than the 30 mm minimum bend radius.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ubiquiti gives a supported data rate of 100 Gbps. The cable has a QSFP28 connector at each end and Ubiquiti lists it as compatible with QSFP28 and QSFP+ interfaces.
No. The QSFP28 connectors are built onto the cable, so it plugs straight into a QSFP28 port at each end, with no separate modules or fibre patch leads.
Ubiquiti calls it a long-range direct attach cable. It uses OM3 fiber at an 850 nm wavelength, in an aqua PVC jacket 3.0 mm in diameter with a minimum bend radius of 30 mm.
This is the 5 m (16.4 ft) cable, part number UACC-AOC-QSFP28-5M, sold as a single unit. Ubiquiti also makes 10, 20 and 30 m lengths.
