BlueOptics 40GB-F03-QSFP-BO InfiniBand-/glasvezelkabel 3 m oranje

The BlueOptics 40GB-F03-QSFP-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 3 m Orange is a 3‑metre multimode fibre cable with QSFP male connectors at both ends. Designed for high-speed data transfer, this cable supports InfiniBand and other high‑bandwidth networking environments where low latency and reliable optical links are required. The orange jacket provides easy visual identification in racks and cable runs, while the compact QSFP termination enables dense port usage in switches, servers and adapters.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable delivers high data throughput and stable optical performance suitable for demanding data center and HPC installations. Its QSFP male terminations provide a standardized interface for QSFP ports, allowing straightforward connectivity between switches, host adapters and transceivers. The 3 m length balances reach and manageability for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-equipment connections, and the durable orange jacket improves traceability and reduces the risk of accidental disconnection during maintenance.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting QSFP-enabled switches and network adapters within racks
• High-performance computing (HPC) and InfiniBand fabrics
• Data center uplinks and short-reach server connections
• Environments requiring color-coded cable management

Key specifications

• Cable type: multimode fibre for InfiniBand and fibre optic networks
• Connector type: QSFP male on both ends
• Length: 3 metres
• Jacket color: orange for easy identification
• Designed for high data rate, low-latency optical links

How to use

Connect each QSFP male connector to the corresponding QSFP port on your network equipment, ensuring proper alignment and a secure seating without forcing the connector. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; maintain the recommended bend radius for multimode fibre to preserve signal integrity. Verify link status on connected devices and, if applicable, check optics and port configuration to ensure correct data rates and protocol settings.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, avoid kinking or pinching the cable, keep connectors clean and covered when not in use, and use color-coded management practices to simplify maintenance. Confirm compatibility with your QSFP ports and InfiniBand or Ethernet link requirements before deployment.
