BlueOptics AA1404028-15M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 40 m QSFP

The BlueOptics AA1404028-15M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 40 m QSFP is a high-speed multimode link designed for short- to mid-range data center interconnects. This cable uses QSFP male connectors on both ends to support InfiniBand protocols and high-throughput links between switches, servers, and host adapters. With a 40-metre length, it provides flexibility for rack-to-rack and row-to-row connections while maintaining signal integrity typical for fibre optic transmission in high-performance computing environments.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable offers stable, low-latency data transfer suited to InfiniBand networks. QSFP-to-QSFP male terminations ensure compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP interfaces and allow direct module-style connections without additional adapters. The 40 m length balances reach and manageable cable routing in typical data center layouts, and the optical construction reduces susceptibility to electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives.

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male on both ends
• Cable length: 40 m
• Optical medium: fibre optic (multimode compatible with InfiniBand)
• Intended use: InfiniBand high-speed data links
• Typical application: rack-to-rack and row-to-row interconnects in data centers

How to use

Route the fibre optic cable along planned cable trays or under-floor pathways to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress. Align and insert each QSFP male connector into the corresponding QSFP port on switches, servers, or host channel adapters until it latches. Verify link status indicators on both devices and ensure proper port configuration for InfiniBand operation. Avoid excessive tension on the cable jacket and secure the cable to prevent strain at connector ends.
