BlueOptics 40GB-F01-QSFP-BO InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 1 m QSFP stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics 40GB-F01-QSFP-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 1 m QSFP Male/Male is a short-reach multimode link designed for high-throughput server, switch and storage interconnects. With QSFP male connectors on both ends and a one-metre length, the cable provides a compact, low-latency connection suitable for dense rack environments and direct device-to-device links in data centres and high-performance computing clusters.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable supports high-speed InfiniBand data transmission with stable signal integrity over the 1 m span. The QSFP male-to-male configuration allows direct mating with QSFP ports without additional adapters, simplifying installation and reducing signal loss. The cable’s compact length minimises cable clutter and improves airflow in racks, while the multimode design ensures compatibility with standard short-range high-bandwidth transceivers.

Suitable for

• Direct connections between QSFP-enabled switches and servers
• High-performance computing (HPC) cluster interconnects
• Storage area network (SAN) short-reach links
• Data centre rack-to-rack or chassis internal cabling

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Applicable standard: InfiniBand high-speed link
• Length: 1 metre
• Optical type: multimode fibre (short-reach)
• Designed for high-bandwidth, low-latency transmission
• Form factor: compact for dense cabling environments

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible QSFP ports and that transceivers or QSFP interfaces are powered down if recommended by the equipment vendor. Align the QSFP connectors with the device ports and insert the cable until it seats securely; some QSFP ports include a latch or retention mechanism that will click into place. After installation, power up the devices and verify link status through the host equipment or network management interface. For removal, follow the vendor procedure to avoid damaging the connector or port.

Recommendations

Handle the fibre cable by its connector housings, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling, and maintain a bend radius consistent with multimode fibre specifications. Keep connector end-faces clean and protected from dust; use appropriate cleaning tools before mating. Choose the 1 m length for short, direct connections inside racks to minimise insertion loss and improve airflow.
