BlueOptics Q28-AOC-1M-IT-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 1m QSFP28 stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics Q28-AOC-1M-IT-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 1m QSFP28 Male/Male is a 1-metre active optical cable designed for high-bandwidth, short-range connections in data center and high-performance computing environments. Equipped with QSFP28 male connectors on both ends, this AOC supports the physical requirements of InfiniBand links and is intended for use where low latency and reliable high-speed data transmission are required.

Advantages

This 1 m InfiniBand fibre optic cable provides a compact and plug-and-play solution for direct interconnects between compatible QSFP28 ports. As an active optical cable, it reduces electrical interference and heat compared to equivalent copper cabling while enabling multi-gigabit throughput. The male-to-male QSFP28 termination ensures straightforward installation in switches, host adapters and networking equipment that accept QSFP28 AOC interfaces.

Suitable for

• Short-reach server-to-switch connections in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters and inter-node links
• Storage area network (SAN) uplinks requiring InfiniBand QSFP28 interfaces
• Network devices and adapters with QSFP28 ports supporting AOC modules

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Length: 1 metre
• Technology: InfiniBand-compatible high-speed optical signalling
• Typical use: Short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC by inserting each QSFP28 male connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your devices until it clicks into place. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by your hardware vendor before connecting. Once seated, enable or configure the InfiniBand or QSFP28 interface through your host or switch management tools as required. For removal, release the connector latch and withdraw the plug straight out to avoid damage to the transceiver or port.

Recommendations

Use the cable in clean, ventilated rack environments and avoid tight bends or kinks; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Verify compatibility of QSFP28 ports and firmware support for AOC modules in your switches and adapters prior to deployment. For optimal performance, keep cable length appropriate for short-reach links and handle connectors by the housing to prevent contamination.
