Cabo de fibra ótica InfiniBand BlueOptics PAN-QSFP28-AOC-1M-BO 1m Macho/Macho

The BlueOptics PAN-QSFP28-AOC-1M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 1-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 male-to-male connectors designed for high-speed data transmission. Built to the MSA QSFP28 form factor, this 100G-capable AOC uses multi-mode fiber with integrated transmitter and receiver modules on each end to carry optical signals for Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet or SDH/SONET applications. The cable is intended for direct QSFP28-to-QSFP28 connections in networking equipment that supports compatible active optical cables.

Advantages

The AOC design eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords, reducing insertion points and simplifying installation while maintaining signal integrity. Using high-quality components and MSA-compliant construction ensures consistent performance and interoperability with hardware that accepts QSFP28 AOCs. The short 1 m length is suitable for direct interconnects in racks and short-distance high-throughput links where low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference are required.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 100G QSFP28 interconnects between switches and routers
• High-performance computing (InfiniBand/100G) cluster connections
• Direct connections to storage systems and network appliances supporting QSFP28 AOCs
• Data center top-of-rack or adjacent-rack links where 1 m cable length is sufficient

Key specifications

• Form factor: QSFP28 to QSFP28 active optical cable
• Length: 1 meter
• Supported data rates: up to 100 Gbit/s (100GBASE-SR4 / QSFP28 applications)
• Fiber type: multi-mode fiber with integrated optical transceiver modules
• Connector gender: male / male QSFP28
• Digital diagnostics support (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring where supported by host hardware
• Designed for short-reach optical links with low latency and EMI immunity

How to use

Insert each QSFP28 connector into compatible QSFP28 ports on the devices to be linked, ensuring the connector latch engages. Confirm that the host hardware supports active optical cables and QSFP28 AOCs. After physical installation, verify link status via device management interfaces and check DDM/DOM values if supported by the equipment to monitor optical power and module status. Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends at the fiber section to maintain performance.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m BlueOptics PAN-QSFP28-AOC-1M-BO for direct QSFP28 interconnects inside racks or between adjacent racks. Ensure the target devices officially support QSFP28 AOCs and enable DDM/DOM monitoring in the host system when diagnostics are required. Avoid exceeding the specified bend radius and keep the cable free from mechanical strain to maximize lifespan.
