BlueOptics PAN-QSFP28-AOC-50M-BO InfiniBand-kuituvalokaapeli 50 m uros/uros

The BlueOptics PAN-QSFP28-AOC-50M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 50m Male/Male is a 50-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 connectors at both ends. Designed for high-density data center and networking environments, this multi-mode AOC integrates transmitter and receiver modules in the connector housings to carry optical signals over 50 metres with support for 100G-class transmission protocols. The cable is intended for direct QSFP28-to-QSFP28 connections between compatible switches, routers and storage equipment that accept QSFP28 AOC modules.

Advantages

The integrated active transceivers reduce the need for separate SFP/QSFP transceivers and optical patching, simplifying rack cabling and saving space in high-density racks. Using multi-mode fibre and QSFP28 interfaces, the cable provides low-latency, high-bandwidth links suitable for 100G Ethernet and related protocols while minimizing signal attenuation across a 50 m span. Compatibility with hardware that supports QSFP28 AOC modules enables plug-and-play deployment without additional configuration.

Suitable for

• Short- to medium-reach 100G connections between QSFP28 ports in data centers
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage arrays supporting QSFP28 AOC
• High-performance computing and InfiniBand-compatible networking environments

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with integrated transceivers
• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Length: 50 metres
• Transmission medium: multi-mode fibre
• Supported data rate: up to 100 Gbit/s per link (protocol dependent)
• Intended use: short- to medium-range high-speed data links in rack and data center environments

How to use

Insert each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on compatible networking equipment until the latch engages. Ensure both link endpoints officially support QSFP28 AOC modules and the intended 100G protocol (for example 100GBASE-SR4 or compatible InfiniBand/ethernet modes). Verify link status and interface configuration in the device management interface after physical connection. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling on the cable to protect the fibre and connector housings.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housings when plugging or unplugging, maintain minimum bend radius as recommended for multi-mode fibre, and store the cable coiled without sharp kinks. For critical deployments, validate interoperability and link performance with your target hardware before wide-scale installation.
