Overview
The Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC3M is a 3-meter active optical cable terminated with integrated QSFP28 ends, delivering 100 Gigabit Ethernet between switches and servers within and across adjacent racks. It combines the low latency and EMI immunity of optical fiber with the plug-and-play simplicity of a fixed cable assembly, drawing less power than discrete transceiver pairs. Ideal for top-of-rack and end-of-row 100G aggregation. Genuine Cisco hardware sourced through an authorized partner.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC3M 100G Active Optical Cable, 3m (QSFP-100G-AOC3M) cost?
Uniqcli sells the QSFP-100G-AOC3M for $997.33 against a Cisco list price of $2,534.05. Add it to your cart and submit to confirm current pricing, stock, and lead time. Lower pricing is available for volume orders, Government Purchase Card (GPC) buys, and emergency or urgent acquisitions. Free US shipping on orders over $2,500.00.
Is the QSFP-100G-AOC3M TAA compliant and available for government and DoD buyers?
It depends on the unit. Cisco manufactures the QSFP-100G-AOC3M in several countries, so Trade Agreements Act (TAA) status is decided per part number and production lot. Uniqcli is an authorized Cisco partner: where Cisco offers a TAA-designated version (usually a ++ part number) we quote that, we confirm the country of origin before shipment, and we attach a country-of-origin statement on request. That is how US federal, DoD, state, local, education, and healthcare buyers get an audit-ready file, with Government Purchase Card (GPC) acceptance and FAR-based urgent and emergency acquisition support. Request a TAA-compliant quote for the QSFP-100G-AOC3M and a specialist will confirm the TAA option, price, and lead time, usually within one business day.
Can I buy the QSFP-100G-AOC3M as a single unit or in volume?
Both. Order a single QSFP-100G-AOC3M through the cart, or ask about lower pricing for volume orders, Government Purchase Card (GPC) purchases, and emergency or urgent (FAR-based) acquisitions. There is no payment up front: we confirm availability and the final total before invoicing.
Where can I find the QSFP-100G-AOC3M datasheet and specifications?
The specifications section on this page lists the published specs for the QSFP-100G-AOC3M, including ports, power, and dimensions where Cisco publishes them. Ask us for the full Cisco datasheet and we will send the current PDF with your quote.
Need the QSFP-100G-AOC3M TAA-compliant for federal or DoD?
Cisco builds this model in multiple countries, so TAA status is decided per part number and production lot. Where Cisco offers a TAA-designated version (usually a ++ part number) we quote that, confirm the country of origin before shipment, and attach the paperwork. GPC-payable. Check the TAA line →
