Cabo de fibra ótica AOC BlueOptics MFA1A00-E010-BO QSFP28–QSFP28, 10 m, InfiniBand (turquesa)

BlueOptics MFA1A00-E010-BO QSFP28–QSFP28 is a 10 m active optical cable (AOC) engineered for high-speed InfiniBand and data center interconnects. The factory-terminated QSFP28 connectors on both ends deliver a low-latency, high-bandwidth link suitable for switches, servers and storage systems. The turquoise jacket improves visual identification and simplifies cable management in dense rack environments while the 10 metre length offers flexible routing across equipment rows.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides high data throughput with reduced electrical interference compared to copper alternatives, enabling reliable links for demanding workloads. Factory-terminated QSFP28 connectors ensure consistent performance and eliminate on-site termination. The 10 m length balances reach and manageability, and the turquoise outer jacket aids quick visual sorting and maintenance in racks and cabling trays.

Suitable for

• Short- to mid-range InfiniBand connections between switches and servers
• Server-to-storage high-bandwidth links in data centers
• Interconnects in high-performance computing (HPC) clusters
• Top-of-rack to aggregation switch links within a rack row

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 to QSFP28
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 10 metres
• Primary use: InfiniBand and high-speed data links
• Jacket colour: Turquoise for easy identification
• Performance: Designed for low latency and high bandwidth

How to use

Insert each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on network switches, servers or storage devices until the latch engages. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-plug procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Route the cable through cable management paths to avoid sharp bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for optical cables. Verify link status through device LEDs or management interfaces and confirm that InfiniBand or the target protocol negotiates the expected data rate.

Recommendations

For optimal reliability, avoid kinking the cable and keep it clear of sources of mechanical stress. Use the turquoise jacket as part of a colour-coded cabling scheme to simplify identification and maintenance. When deploying in high-density racks, plan routing to preserve airflow and service access. Check compatibility with QSFP28 ports and consult device documentation for supported transceiver and cable types.
