Kuitukaapeli InfiniBand BlueOptics QSFP56–QSFP56 15 m oranssi

BlueOptics InfiniBand fibre optic cable with QSFP56 connectors at both ends. This 15 m orange-jacketed active optical cable (AOC) provides QSFP56 male-to-male connectivity for short- to mid-range data centre links, suitable for high-speed server, switch and storage interconnects. The lightweight construction (0.23 kg) and plug-and-play QSFP56 interface enable direct connection between QSFP56 ports without additional transceivers.

Advantages

The cable supports high-bandwidth links with a QSFP56-to-QSFP56 form factor designed to meet common MSA-compatible implementations for 200 Gbit/s multimode optical connections. An orange outer jacket provides easy visual identification in dense cabling environments, while the AOC design integrates optical transmitter and receiver assemblies on each end to simplify installation and reduce the need for separate SFP/QSFP transceivers. Its 15 m length covers typical short- to mid-range inter-rack and intra-rack runs.

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure both devices have QSFP56 ports that support AOC connections and are powered off or follow hot-plug guidelines from the equipment vendor. Align and insert the QSFP56 connectors into the corresponding ports until the latch engages. Verify link status LEDs or management software on the connected devices to confirm the link establishes at the expected data rate. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; secure with appropriate cable management accessories where required.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use this 15 m QSFP56 AOC in multimode environments within data centres and avoid exceeding the recommended bend radius. Confirm device compatibility with QSFP56 AOC modules in vendor documentation and, if necessary, test a sample link to validate operation at the desired protocol and speed before wide deployment.
