BlueOptics Q28-AOC-1M-IA-BO InfiniBand-kuituoptinen kaapeli 1 m QSFP28 uros

The BlueOptics Q28-AOC-1M-IA-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 1m QSFP28 male is a 1 metre active optical cable designed for high-speed, short-reach links in data center and enterprise networking environments. With QSFP28 male connectors on both ends, this cable supports InfiniBand protocols and provides low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity between switches, servers, and storage systems. Its compact form factor and single-metre length make it suitable for top-of-rack and mid-plane interconnects where signal integrity and space efficiency are important.

Advantages

The cable offers high data throughput and reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives, enabling stable transmission for latency-sensitive applications. Its active optical design ensures consistent signal quality over the 1 m length while keeping power consumption and thermal output low. The QSFP28 form factor enables straightforward plug-and-play integration into compatible ports, providing reliable mechanical mating and minimizing insertion/removal effort.

Suitable for

• Short-reach links between servers and switches in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters requiring InfiniBand connectivity
• Storage area networks and aggregation layers with QSFP28 ports
• Environments prioritizing low latency and high bandwidth

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Length: 1 metre
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Supported protocol: InfiniBand high-speed transmission
• Typical use: Short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects
• Physical form factor: QSFP28-compatible

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC by firmly inserting each QSFP28 male connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices are powered off or follow hot-plug guidelines from the device manufacturer if live insertion is supported. Verify link status via device front-panel indicators or management interfaces and perform any required firmware or driver checks to confirm full protocol compatibility. Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid bending the fibre cable sharply to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

To ensure reliable operation, route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain, keep it away from high-heat sources, and verify compatibility with your hardware's QSFP28 and InfiniBand specifications before deployment.
