BlueOptics QSFP-100G-AOC-5M-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 5m QSFP28 stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-100G-AOC-5M-BO is a 5-meter Active Optical Cable (AOC) with QSFP28 male connectors on both ends, designed for 100G data transmission over multimode fibre. It supports 100GBASE-SR4 applications and is intended for use in data centers, high-performance networks and storage environments where low latency and reliable high-bandwidth links are required. The cable integrates optical transmitters and receivers on each end and follows MSA-compliant QSFP28 form-factor specifications for straightforward integration with compatible networking hardware.

Advantages

The BlueOptics AOC provides a factory-terminated fibre connection that reduces the need for patching and cleaning patch cords, lowering installation complexity and signal loss. Built to MSA standards for QSFP28, it supports simultaneous send and receive optical channels and offers digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time information on supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature. The all-optical link is immune to electromagnetic interference, enabling stable high-speed transmission with low latency over a short-reach multimode fibre link.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by firmly inserting each QSFP28 male connector into the corresponding QSFP28 ports on your compatible switches, routers or storage devices. Ensure link partners support 100GBASE-SR4 and, if you intend to use DDM/DOM functions, verify that the host hardware exposes diagnostics information. Route the 5 m pre-assembled cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; follow your equipment manufacturer's port seating and retention procedures to secure the connector. No field termination is required.

Recommendations

Verify hardware compatibility before deployment: confirm that the target devices officially support QSFP28 AOCs or QSFP-100G SR4 links. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force; maintain appropriate bend radius for multimode fibre. Use the DDM/DOM readouts for proactive link monitoring and troubleshooting when supported by your system.
