Active Optical Cables
Active Optical Cables for High-Performance Connectivity
ACTIVE OPTICAL CABLES
Finisar’s family of active optical cables accelerate data connectivity for storage, networking and high-
performance computing (HPC) applications. This product line includes C.wire® for 100GbE and InfiniBand
12xQDR/12xFDR/4xEDR; Quadwire® for 40/100GbE and InfiniBand 4xQDR/4xFDR/4xEDR; and SFPwire™ for
applications up to 10 Gb/s.
Each cable solution leverages Finisar’s fiber optic technology for the transmission of data while reducing the
weight, density and power consumption of traditional copper solutions. Key advantages of active optical cables
include low weight for high port count architectures; small bend radius for easy installations; and low power
consumption enabling a greener environment thereby providing the lowest total cost solution for data centers.

12-Channel Parallel Active Optical Cables for
100GbE and InfiniBand 12xQDR/12xFDR
C.wire
®
is a family of 12-channel parallel active optical
cables that enables high-speed data connectivity for
storage, networking, and high-performance computing
(HPC) applications. It supports up to 12x14 Gb/s
bi-directionally over parallel multimode fiber (MMF)
cable. Based on Finisar’s vertically integrated VCSEL array
technology and designed with CXP-compliant high-density
connectors, these cables are compact, lightweight, and low
power. C.wire is well suited for data center reaches up to
300 meters for InfiniBand 12xQDR/12xFDR, 100G Ethernet,
PCIe, and other proprietary datacom and HPC applications.
C.wire is available in a point-to-point configuration using
MSA compliant CXP modules on each end, as well as a
fanout configuration with a CXP module on one end and
three separate QSFP+ modules at the other end.

10 Gb/s SFP+ Active Optical Cable for 10G Ethernet
SFPwire™ is a family of 10G active optical cables for high-speed
data links between SFP+ ports. SFPwire is ideally suited for
inter-rack and intra-rack connections within a data center
environment. Based on Finisar’s vertically integrated VCSEL array
technology and designed with SFP+ SFI-limiting module ends,
SFPwire is lighter and more flexible than comparable copper
SFP+ direct attach cables (DACs).
