BlueOptics Q28-AOC-1M-GM-BO cable de fibra óptica InfiniBand 1 m conector QSFP28

The BlueOptics Q28-AOC-1M-GM-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 1 meter active optical cable with QSFP28 male connectors on both ends. Designed for short-reach high-speed links, this cable supports InfiniBand environments and high-performance data transfer between servers, switches and storage systems. Its compact 1 m length helps maintain tidy rack layouts and minimizes excess cabling in dense equipment installations.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity suitable for modern InfiniBand networks. The QSFP28 connectors ensure compatibility with equipment that uses the QSFP28 form factor, while the optical construction reduces electromagnetic interference and signal degradation over copper. The short 1 m length is useful for direct-attached links inside racks, offering stable performance with simplified cable management.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between servers and switches in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters requiring InfiniBand links
• Direct-attached storage connections inside equipment racks
• Environments where low latency and high throughput are required

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Length: 1 meter
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Supported interface: InfiniBand (QSFP28 form factor)
• Signal medium: Fibre optic (optical links)
• Typical use: Short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects

How to use

Install the cable by aligning the QSFP28 connectors with the corresponding QSFP28 ports on your network devices and gently inserting until the connector latches. Ensure the devices are powered down or follow hot-plugging procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Route the 1 m cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension on the connector ends. For diagnostics, verify link status LEDs on the connected devices and confirm the InfiniBand link is negotiated at the expected speed.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m AOC for short, direct-attached links inside racks to maintain signal integrity and simplify cable management. Avoid tight bends, exposure to liquids, and repeated mechanical stress at connector interfaces. Confirm compatibility with your InfiniBand hardware and firmware before deployment.
