BlueOptics BO252503K7M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 7 m QSFP

The BlueOptics BO252503K7M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 7 m QSFP is a 7-metre multimode optical cable designed for high-throughput, low-latency links between networking equipment with QSFP interfaces. The cable uses QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) male connectors on both ends, providing reliable, high-speed data transmission for rack-to-rack and intra-rack connections in data centers and high-performance computing environments.

Advantages

This InfiniBand fibre optic cable delivers stable, high-bandwidth connectivity with low insertion loss and consistent signal integrity over a 7 m distance. The QSFP male-to-male configuration ensures straightforward interoperability with QSFP ports, enabling easy integration with switches, adapters, and servers that support QSFP-based InfiniBand links. The cable’s optical construction reduces electromagnetic interference and supports reliable operation in dense cabling environments.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by aligning and inserting the QSFP male connectors into compatible QSFP ports until they seat securely. Ensure both transceivers or QSFP ports are powered down or follow hot-plugging procedures recommended by your hardware vendor if supported. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance. After installation, verify link status and data throughput through your network management or host diagnostics tools.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this 7 m QSFP InfiniBand fibre optic cable in short-reach, high-bandwidth scenarios within racks or between adjacent racks. Maintain gentle cable routing, keep connectors clean and covered when not in use, and verify compatibility with your QSFP ports and InfiniBand equipment specifications before deployment.
