InfiniBand/kuituoptinen kaapeli BlueOptics 980-9I13F-00E003-BO QSFP28 AOC 3 m sininen

The BlueOptics 980-9I13F-00E003-BO QSFP28 AOC 3 m Blue is a 3 metre active optical cable designed for high-speed InfiniBand and fibre optic links. With QSFP28 connectors on both ends, this AOC cable supports high-bandwidth, low-latency connections commonly required in data centres and high-performance computing clusters. The cable's blue jacket and stainless steel elements provide a professional appearance and physical robustness for rack-mounted and dense-cabling environments.

Advantages

This active optical cable delivers reliable high-speed data transfer with reduced electromagnetic interference compared to copper alternatives. The QSFP28-to-QSFP28 connection enables multi-lane high-throughput interfaces suitable for modern switch and server ports. Its 3 m length offers a practical reach for intra-rack or short inter-rack connections while the lightweight construction simplifies cable management and reduces strain on ports.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabrics
• Data centre switch-to-server and switch-to-switch links
• Storage area networks (short-reach connections)
• Environments requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth links

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 m
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Connectors: QSFP28 on both ends
• Weight: 0.15 kg
• Colour and materials: Blue jacket with stainless steel elements

How to use

Connect each QSFP28 connector to the corresponding QSFP28 port on your switches, servers, or host adapters. Ensure ports are powered down or follow hot-plug procedures recommended by your hardware vendor before insertion or removal to avoid link negotiation issues. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the minimum bend radius specified by your equipment documentation. After physical connection, verify link status and speed using your network management tools or device LEDs.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this 3 m QSFP28 AOC for intra-rack or short inter-rack connections where low latency and high bandwidth are required. Avoid exposing the cable to excessive heat, liquids, or mechanical abrasion. Check compatibility with your QSFP28 ports and firmware guidelines for the best interoperability.
