BlueOptics MFA1A00-C001-BO cable de fibra óptica InfiniBand 1 m QSFP28 conector macho/conector macho

The BlueOptics MFA1A00-C001-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 1 m active optical cable with QSFP28 male-to-male connectors. Designed for high-speed interconnects, this cable supports 100G transmission over multimode fibre and follows common QSFP28/MSA physical interface conventions for compatibility with high-performance switches, routers and host adapters. The AOC design integrates optical transmitters and receivers in the QSFP28 housings to deliver low-latency data transfer suitable for dense rack and data centre deployments.

Advantages

This 1 m QSFP28 male/male cable provides stable 100GBASE-SR4 class performance over multimode fibre and is built to meet standard QSFP28 electrical and mechanical pinouts for broad compatibility. The integrated transceiver electronics reduce external transceiver requirements and simplify installation. With a compact AOC form factor and a short length optimized for top-of-rack and switch-to-switch connections, the cable minimizes signal loss and helps maintain predictable link behaviour in high-performance computing and storage networks.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 100G interconnects in data centres and server racks
• Switch-to-switch and switch-to-server connections using QSFP28 ports
• High-performance computing clusters and storage systems requiring low-latency links
• Environments where a compact, pre-terminated active optical cable is preferred over separate transceivers and fibre

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Length: 1 metre
• Transmission class: 100GBASE-SR4 (100 Gbit/s over multimode fibre)
• Fibre type: multimode (active optical cable with integrated TX/RX)
• Form factor: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Typical applications: Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet, InfiniBand and similar high-speed protocols

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC by inserting each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your network devices until the connector latch engages. Ensure that both ends are fully seated and secured and that connected devices are powered and configured to support 100G links. For best results, use the cable for short-reach links within racks or between adjacent racks where a 1 m length is appropriate. No separate optical transceivers or patch cords are required because the optical transceivers are integrated into the cable ends.

Recommendations

Verify device compatibility with QSFP28 AOC modules and confirm that your switches or adapters support 100GBASE-SR4 or equivalent 100G passive/active optical interfaces. Avoid tight bends and excessive strain on the cable and keep connectors clean and free of dust when installing or storing the cable.
