BlueOptics CBL-530-BO InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 30 m QSFP28 aqua

The BlueOptics CBL-530-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 30 m QSFP28 Aqua is a 30 metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 to QSFP28 connectors, designed for high-speed multi-mode optical links used in data centers and networking equipment. The aqua-coloured jacket provides easy identification and organisation of cable runs. The cable supports 100GBASE-SR4 transmission over multimode fibre and includes transceivers at each end to transmit and receive optical signals according to MSA QSFP28 standards.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC provides a factory-assembled optical connection that eliminates the need for patching and reduces insertion loss associated with connectorised patch cords. The pre-integrated transmitter and receiver modules enable simultaneous send/receive operation at 100 Gbps, while the aqua colour coding simplifies cable management in dense racks. The cable is built to MSA-aligned mechanical and electrical specifications for QSFP28 interfaces and includes Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support to report parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature, where supported by host hardware.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics CBL-530-BO by inserting each QSFP28 connector into the appropriate QSFP28 port on your switch, router or storage device while following standard hot-plug and electrostatic discharge precautions. Ensure both ends are seated fully and the host equipment recognises the QSFP28 link. Verify link state and diagnostics using the host system management interfaces; if supported, use DDM/DOM values to check optical power and module temperature. No patching or cleaning of separate fibre connectors is required since the cable is pre-assembled.

Recommendations

Use this 30 m QSFP28 AOC in compliance with the supported port types listed by your hardware vendor to ensure interoperability. Avoid sharp bends, excessive tensile load and exposure to fluids or contaminants. Confirm that the host device supports DDM/DOM if you intend to monitor optical diagnostics.
