BlueOptics BO252503K5M-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 5 m QSFP

The BlueOptics BO252503K5M-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 5 m QSFP is a multimode connection cable designed for high-speed data links in data centers and enterprise networks. With QSFP connectors on both ends and a 5 metre length, the cable supports short-range, low-latency connections between switches, servers and storage arrays. It is intended for applications that require reliable optical transmission and compact QSFP form-factor connectivity.

Advantages

This 5 m QSFP fibre optic cable provides stable optical performance with low insertion loss and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The QSFP connector format allows for high port density and simple integration into modern InfiniBand and optical networking equipment. Its standardized multimode construction simplifies compatibility with common transceivers and reduces signal degradation over short distances.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on networking equipment or transceivers, ensuring proper alignment and a secure click. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance. Verify the link status on connected devices and run appropriate diagnostics or speed tests to confirm expected throughput and latency.

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable within the recommended short-range environment, avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress, and pair it with compatible QSFP transceivers and multimode ports. Regularly inspect connectors for contamination and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before insertion.
