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

The BlueOptics Q28-AOC-50M-NK-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 50m QSFP28 Male is a 50-metre active optical cable designed for high-speed connectivity in data centre and enterprise networking environments. With QSFP28 male connectors at both ends and an InfiniBand-compatible design, the cable supports low-latency, high-throughput links between switches, servers and storage systems over a 50 metre reach.

Advantages

This active optical cable delivers high data rates with low signal attenuation and electromagnetic immunity common to fibre technology. The QSFP28 connector format enables compatibility with 100Gbps and related port types that accept QSFP28 InfiniBand transceivers, while the 50 m length provides extended reach without intermediate conversion. The male-to-male configuration simplifies direct pairings between QSFP28 ports and reduces the need for additional adapters.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency links
• Data centre uplinks and switch-to-switch connections
• Server-to-storage fabric connections in enterprise environments

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Protocol compatibility: InfiniBand, compatible with QSFP28 100Gbps ports
• Length: 50 metres
• Signal medium: multimode optical fibre within AOC assembly
• Typical use: short-to-medium reach high-speed interconnects

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP28 male connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure that both ends are securely seated and that connected equipment is powered and configured for InfiniBand or the supported 100Gbps protocol. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; maintain recommended bend radius for AOC assemblies. If devices require link negotiation or specific firmware settings for InfiniBand lanes, configure those parameters according to equipment vendor guidance before placing the link into production.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid extreme bending and physical stress on the cable, keep connector end faces clean, and verify compatibility with the ports on your switches and servers. Use the 50m active optical cable in temperature-controlled data centre environments and follow vendor guidelines for port configuration and monitoring.
