InfiniBand/kuitu-kaapeli BlueOptics 00CKM-BL 1 m QSFP28

The BlueOptics 00CKM-BL is a 1 m high-speed InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP28 connectors on both ends. Designed for demanding data-centre and networking environments, this cable provides a short-reach connection option for systems that require up to 100G data throughput. The physical design and connector type make it suitable for linking network devices inside racks or between adjacent racks where reliable, low-loss signal transmission is required.

Advantages

This 1 m QSFP28 cable delivers predictable high-speed performance with minimal signal loss for short-distance links. It is MSA-compliant and designed to interoperate with major hardware platforms that support QSFP28 interfaces. Built to support InfiniBand and fibre optic applications up to 100G, the cable balances electrical/fibre characteristics and mechanical durability to provide stable connectivity for critical network paths.

Suitable for

• Short-reach connections inside data-centre racks
• Interconnects between adjacent racks or equipment bays
• High-speed links for switches, routers and storage systems with QSFP28 ports
• InfiniBand and 100G Ethernet environments requiring QSFP28 connectivity

Key specifications

• Length: 1 metre
• Connector type: QSFP28 to QSFP28
• Supported link type: InfiniBand and 100G optical/electrical high-speed interfaces
• Designed for short-reach, rack-to-rack or in-rack connections
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Verify that your devices support QSFP28 interfaces and the relevant 100G protocol (InfiniBand or Ethernet) before installation. Power down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by your equipment vendor, then insert the QSFP28 connector into the corresponding port until it latches. Route the 1 m cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain. After connecting both ends, confirm link status and negotiate link speed via your switch or host diagnostics to ensure the connection is operating at the expected rate.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m QSFP28 cable for short, rack-level links where low latency and stable 100G connectivity are required. Avoid excessive bending radii and exposure to high mechanical stress; store and handle the cable by its connectors to prolong service life. For interoperability, ensure connected hardware supports passive direct attach or fibre interfaces as appropriate for your system.
