BlueOptics Q9S71A-BO InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 5 m QSFP28 aqua

The BlueOptics Q9S71A-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 5 m QSFP28 Aqua is a 5-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 to QSFP28 male connectors designed for high-speed 100G data transmission over multimode fiber. Compatible with systems that support 100GBASE-SR4 and QSFP28 MSA standards, this aqua-colored cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules at both ends and is intended for use in data centers, switches, routers and storage systems where a direct, pre-assembled fiber link is required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC conforms to MSA QSFP28 mechanical and electrical specifications and supports 100GBASE-SR4 class applications, enabling simultaneous send and receive optical transmission. The pre-assembled design eliminates the need for patch cords and manual fiber termination, reducing attenuation points and simplifying installation. Components are selected from established communications suppliers to provide consistent performance and long operational life. The cable is immune to electromagnetic interference and provides deterministic, low-latency links suitable for high-throughput environments.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug each QSFP28 connector into compatible QSFP28 ports on the devices to be linked, ensuring proper seating and that the host hardware supports QSFP28 AOC modules and the DDM/DOM interface if diagnostics are required. No additional fiber termination or patching is necessary. After installation, verify link status and negotiated speed on the connected devices and check DDM/DOM values via the host management interface when supported.

Recommendations

Use this 5 m BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC for short-reach 100G links inside racks or between adjacent racks to minimize cabling complexity. Confirm device compatibility with 100GBASE-SR4 and QSFP28 AOC modules before deployment and handle connectors with care to avoid contamination; store protective dust caps when connectors are not in use. For monitoring and troubleshooting, enable DDM/DOM on compatible hardware to view real-time optical parameters.
