BlueOptics SP-CABLE-FS-QSFP+5-BL InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 5 m zwart

The BlueOptics SP-CABLE-FS-QSFP+5-BL is a 5 m InfiniBand / fibre optic cable with male QSFP connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed links in data centres and network racks, this cable supports reliable high-bandwidth transmission with minimal signal loss over a 5 metre distance. The product is intended for environments that require QSFP-to-QSFP connectivity for applications such as Ethernet, Fibre Channel, FCoE and InfiniBand where a 5 m optical link is suitable.

Advantages

This QSFP-to-QSFP cable offers a standardized connector format and a fixed 5 m length for predictable installation and cable management in rack and adjacent-rack setups. Built to meet industry interoperability expectations, it provides consistent performance for short-reach, high-speed data links. The cable’s design focuses on low attenuation and compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP form-factor fibre optic links.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links in data centres
• Storage area network (SAN) and Fibre Channel connections where QSFP optics are used
• InfiniBand clusters and high-performance computing interconnects
• Network hardware racks and adjacent rack connections requiring 5 m optical links

Key specifications

• Cable type: InfiniBand / fibre optic cable
• Connector type: male QSFP on both ends
• Length: 5 metres
• Colour: Black
• Designed use: high-speed data transmission in data centres and networking environments

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SP-CABLE-FS-QSFP+5-BL by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on compatible devices, ensuring alignment and a secure fit. Route the cable within the rack or between adjacent racks to avoid sharp bends and excessive strain. Verify link status and configuration on connected devices according to the manufacturer’s instructions and the supported transmission protocol.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this QSFP fibre optic cable in systems that explicitly support QSFP optical interfaces and the intended transmission protocols (Ethernet, Fibre Channel, FCoE, InfiniBand). Keep bend radius within manufacturer guidelines, avoid mechanical stress, and perform link verification after installation. Where applicable, consult device compatibility lists or request a sample to confirm interoperability before large deployments.
