BlueOptics MFS1S00-V015E-BO InfiniBand/kuituoptinen kaapeli — QSFP56 - QSFP56, 15 m, oranssi

The BlueOptics MFS1S00-V015E-BO is an active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP56 connectors at both ends, designed for high-speed InfiniBand and multimode fibre optic links. With a 15 m cable length and an orange jacket for easy identification, this QSFP56 to QSFP56 cable supports 200 Gbit/s short-reach connections and is built for data centre interconnects, switch-to-switch or switch-to-server links where QSFP56 ports are used.

Advantages

This 15 m active optical cable provides high-bandwidth transmission over multimode fibre with integrated transmitter and receiver electronics on each connector to ensure signal integrity across the link. The orange outer jacket improves cable management and identification in dense rack environments. Lightweight construction (approximately 0.23 kg) reduces strain on ports and cable trays while maintaining MSA-compatible QSFP56 terminations for straightforward installation in compatible equipment.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 200G links between QSFP56 ports in data centres
• High-bandwidth switch-to-switch or switch-to-server interconnects
• InfiniBand or Ethernet high-speed fabric connections
• Multimode fibre routes requiring clear visual identification

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) for multimode fibre
• Connectors: QSFP56 to QSFP56 (male-to-male)
• Maximum aggregated data rate: 200 Gbit/s
• Length: 15 m
• Colour: Orange
• Weight: approx. 0.23 kg

How to use

Connect each QSFP56 connector to the corresponding QSFP56 port on the devices to be linked, ensuring both ends are fully seated and latched according to the host equipment instructions. The cable contains active optical transceivers and requires no external power beyond the host ports; ensure the connected equipment supports QSFP56 AOC modules and the required 200G link configuration. Verify link status and interface settings on network devices after connection to confirm the expected speed and protocol (Ethernet, InfiniBand, or Fibre Channel over Ethernet) are negotiated.

Recommendations

Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force on the cable; maintain bend radius recommended by the equipment vendor. Use the orange jacket to segregate high-speed multimode links during cable management, and confirm compatibility with your networking or storage platform before deployment.
