Cabo de fibra ótica InfiniBand BlueOptics Q28-AOC-2M-MV-BO 2m QSFP28 ficha

The BlueOptics Q28-AOC-2M-MV-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 2m QSFP28 Male is a 2-metre active optical cable engineered for high-bandwidth, low-latency data links. It uses QSFP28 male connectors on both ends and supports InfiniBand interconnects commonly used in server racks, switches and high-performance computing environments. The cable provides a compact, electrically passive alternative to copper for short-reach connections while delivering signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

This active optical cable offers high data throughput and stable signal transmission over a 2 m length, enabling reliable connections between QSFP28 ports. Its lightweight, flexible construction simplifies routing in dense racks and reduces strain on connector interfaces. The optical design minimizes heat generation and susceptibility to electromagnetic noise, making it suitable for sensitive networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting QSFP28 ports in data centre switch-to-switch links
• Short-reach InfiniBand connections between servers and storage systems
• High-performance computing clusters and low-latency networking setups
• Top-of-rack and adjacent-rack cabling where a 2 m fibre link is appropriate

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Length: 2 metres
• Interface standard: InfiniBand-compatible high-speed link
• Transmission: Multichannel optical transmission for 100 Gbit/s class links
• Design: Low-profile, flexible fibre construction for dense cabling

How to use

Align each QSFP28 male connector with the corresponding port until it seats firmly; engage any retention mechanism present on the host devices. Ensure both ends are fully inserted and secured before powering network equipment. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius and prevent kinks; route the cable to minimize mechanical stress and maintain airflow in racks. For optimal performance, keep connector endfaces clean and protected from dust prior to installation.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment; use appropriate dust caps when connectors are not in use. Do not exceed the manufacturer’s specified bend radius and avoid tight wraps around sharp corners. Verify compatibility with QSFP28 ports and InfiniBand link settings in your equipment, and perform link tests after installation to confirm expected throughput and link stability.
