Cabo InfiniBand/fibra ótica BlueOptics 980-9I134-00C010-BO QSFP28 AOC 10 m azul

The BlueOptics 980-9I134-00C010-BO QSFP28 AOC is a 10 m active optical cable (AOC) engineered for InfiniBand and high-speed fibre connectivity. It uses QSFP28 connectors on both ends to support high bandwidth links between switches, servers and storage in data centre and high-performance computing setups. The cable combines a durable stainless steel element with a blue outer finish and is intended for short to medium reach connections where signal integrity and ease of installation are important.

Advantages

The AOC design eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fibre patch cords, simplifying rack cabling and reducing component count. QSFP28 connectivity provides compatibility with 100 Gbps-class ports, enabling high-throughput, low-latency links. The 10 m length offers flexible placement of equipment while maintaining signal quality over the required span. A sturdy stainless steel element and a protective blue jacket contribute to mechanical durability and easy visual identification in crowded cable runs.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections in data centres
• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabrics
• Storage area network links requiring high bandwidth
• Short- to medium-reach interconnects within racks and across adjacent racks

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 m
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Connector types: QSFP28 to QSFP28
• Weight: 0.15 kg
• Colour and finish: Blue jacket with stainless steel element

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC by inserting each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure connectors are aligned and ports are powered down or prepared according to your equipment manufacturer’s hot-plug guidelines if applicable. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain the specified minimum bend radius for AOC assemblies. After connection, verify link LEDs and check network configuration to confirm the link is active and operating at expected speed.

Recommendations

Use this AOC for intra-rack and adjacent-rack high-bandwidth links where 10 m reach is sufficient. Avoid tight cable bundles and sharp bends; store and handle the cable by the connector housings and the cable jacket rather than pulling on the fiber core. Confirm device compatibility with QSFP28 AOC modules and follow equipment vendor guidance for hot-plugging and transceiver handling.
