BlueOptics QSFP-100G-D-AOC-7M-BO InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 7 m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-100G-D-AOC-7M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 7-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 male-to-male connectors designed for high-speed links in data center and networking environments. It supports 100G data rates over multi-mode optical transmission and follows QSFP28 form-factor compatibility for direct connections between switches, routers and servers that accept QSFP28 ports.

Advantages

This 7 m AOC provides electrical isolation and reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives while enabling 100G connectivity across moderate distances inside racks and between adjacent racks. The QSFP28 male-to-male interface ensures straightforward plug-and-play installation in QSFP28 ports and eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fibre patch cords. Built to industry mechanical and connector standards, it is suitable for dense, high-bandwidth setups where consistent, low-latency links are required.

Suitable for

• Connecting QSFP28-equipped switches and routers within data centers
• Server-to-switch or server-to-storage high-bandwidth links
• Short-reach InfiniBand or Ethernet 100G interconnects in HPC and virtualization environments

Key specifications

• Length: 7 meters
• Connector type: QSFP28 male-to-male
• Type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Supported data rate: up to 100 Gbps
• Transmission medium: multi-mode optical fiber

How to use

Insert each QSFP28 connector into compatible QSFP28 ports on your networking equipment until the connector latches. Ensure that both endpoints support 100G AOC connections and are powered off or follow hot-plugging procedures recommended by the equipment vendor. After insertion, verify link status via the device management interface or status LEDs and configure the interfaces according to your network topology and protocols (Ethernet, InfiniBand or Fibre Channel over Ethernet as supported by your devices).

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multi-mode optical cables. Use this 7 m QSFP28 AOC for in-rack and adjacent-rack connections where a compact, low-latency 100G link is needed, and confirm compatibility with your hardware vendor’s supported AOC or QSFP28 modules.
