Cable InfiniBand/fibra óptica QSFP BlueOptics MC2206130-00A-BL macho/macho

The BlueOptics MC2206130-00A-BL is an InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP male-to-male connectors designed for high-performance data transmission in data centre and networking environments. The cable provides a direct connection between QSFP ports for short- to medium-reach links, supporting low-latency, high-throughput interconnects where reliable signalling and mechanical compatibility are required.

Advantages

This QSFP BlueOptics cable combines QSFP connectivity with fibre-optic transmission characteristics for consistent signal integrity and reduced interference compared with electrical alternatives. The male/male configuration simplifies direct port-to-port linking without adapters. Constructed for rack and edge networking environments, it supports common InfiniBand and fibre optic use cases and is engineered to meet industry interoperability expectations.

Suitable for

• Direct QSFP-to-QSFP connections in switches and routers
• High-speed links between servers and storage systems
• Short- to medium-reach interconnects in data centres and server rooms
• InfiniBand and fibre-optic network segments requiring QSFP interfaces

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Transmission medium: fibre optic
• Application domain: InfiniBand and fibre-optic networking
• Typical use: direct device interconnects in rack or adjacent-rack setups
• Brand: BlueOptics

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible QSFP ports and support the intended protocol (InfiniBand or compatible fibre-optic interface). Power down or follow hot-plug guidance from the hardware vendor if required, then align and insert the QSFP connectors into the corresponding ports until they seat securely. Verify link status via the host device or switch management interface and confirm negotiated link speed and health.

Recommendations

Use factory-certified QSFP ports and check vendor interoperability lists if strict compatibility is required. Avoid sharp bends in the fibre cable, maintain minimum bend radii, and route the cable to minimise mechanical stress. For mission-critical links, validate performance with existing hardware before large-scale deployment.
