InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel BlueOptics AA1404028-7M-BO 7m QSFP male

The BlueOptics AA1404028-7M-BO is a 7-meter InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP male connectors engineered for high-speed data transmission in professional networking environments. Designed for use in data centers and server rooms, this cable supports low-latency, high-bandwidth interconnects between switches, routers, and host-channel adapters. The blue jacket provides easy identification in structured cabling runs while the QSFP terminations offer a compact, high-density interface.

Advantages

This 7 m fibre optic cable delivers stable performance for long-distance links within racks and across adjacent cabinets. The QSFP male connectors provide secure mating and reliable contact resistance, reducing the risk of intermittent connections. Its construction minimizes signal loss and electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for environments where consistent throughput and signal integrity are required.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand interconnects
• Data centre switch-to-switch and switch-to-server connections
• Storage area network (SAN) links requiring high bandwidth
• Server racks and cabinet-to-cabinet cabling within 7 m spans

Key specifications

• Cable type: Fibre optic / InfiniBand compatible
• Connector type: QSFP male at both ends
• Length: 7 metres
• Color: Blue jacket for identification
• Designed for high-bandwidth, low-latency data transmission

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP cable by aligning each QSFP male connector with the corresponding QSFP port on networking equipment and insert until a secure latch or seating is felt. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the recommended minimum bend radius for fibre optic cables. Verify link status on connected devices and, if necessary, run diagnostics to confirm expected bandwidth and signal integrity.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housing and cable jacket, avoid pulling on the fibre itself, and store or route it in trays or cable management solutions to prevent kinks. For optimal performance, ensure compatibility of QSFP ports and firmware on connected devices and avoid exceeding the 7 m span for which the cable is specified.
