BlueOptics Q28-AOC-50M-CO-BO Cabo de fibra ótica InfiniBand 50 m QSFP28 macho/macho

The BlueOptics Q28-AOC-50M-CO-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 50m QSFP28 Male/Male is a 50-metre active optical cable designed for high-bandwidth, low-latency connections in data centres and high-performance computing environments. The cable integrates QSFP28 male connectors at both ends and supports InfiniBand protocols for fast, reliable data transfer across racks and within server clusters. Its length and connector type enable flexible routing and direct device-to-device links without the need for transceivers.

Advantages

This 50m InfiniBand cable offers high-speed data transmission with reduced electrical interference compared to copper alternatives. The QSFP28 Male/Male connectors provide a compact, standardized interface for high-density networking equipment. The active optical design helps maintain signal integrity over longer distances while keeping power consumption low. The cable’s build is intended for consistent performance and operational stability in demanding environments.

Suitable for

• Inter-rack connections in data centres and server rooms
• High-performance computing clusters and storage networks
• Low-latency links between switches, routers and compute nodes
• Environments where optical cabling is preferred for reduced EMI

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 Male to QSFP28 Male
• Length: 50 metres
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Protocol compatibility: InfiniBand
• Intended use: High-bandwidth, low-latency data links

How to use

Install the cable by gently inserting each QSFP28 male connector into the corresponding QSFP28 ports on networking devices, ensuring proper orientation and a secure fit. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive stress; maintain minimum bend radius as recommended by equipment vendors. Active optical cables may require compatible port settings on switches or host adapters; verify link status after connection and follow device diagnostics to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable within managed data centre environments, keep connectors clean and capped when not in use, and avoid sharp bends or crushing forces. Verify compatibility with the InfiniBand gear in your setup and check transceiver and port documentation for any firmware or configuration requirements.
