BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable QSFP56 to QSFP56 15 m Turquoise

BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable QSFP56 to QSFP56 15 m Turquoise is an active optical cable (AOC) designed for high-speed InfiniBand and optical interconnects in data centers and HPC environments. The cable features QSFP56 connectors at both ends, a 15 m turquoise jacket and a lightweight construction (0.23 kg). It supports 200GBASE-SR4 signal transmission and is built according to MSA standards to ensure interoperability with common hardware platforms that accept QSFP56 200G AOC modules.

Advantages

The cable provides high-bandwidth, low-latency optical links that are immune to electromagnetic interference, allowing reliable data transmission across rack and adjacent-rack installations. As an MSA-compliant 200GBASE-SR4 QSFP56 to QSFP56 AOC, it integrates transmit and receive functions for optical signals and includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time status of voltage, laser current, optical power and temperature when supported by the host hardware. Built from industry-standard components, the cable is intended for long service life and stable operation in demanding network environments.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each QSFP56 connector into compatible QSFP56 ports on servers, switches or storage devices until the connector latches. Ensure that devices are powered down or that hot-plug support and proper ESD precautions are observed according to the hardware vendor’s guidelines. If digital diagnostics are required, verify that the host equipment supports DDM/DOM to access real-time optical parameters. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the equipment manufacturer.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this BlueOptics QSFP56-to-QSFP56 15 m AOC for intra-rack and short inter-rack connections where 200 Gbit/s bandwidth and low latency are required. Avoid repeated tight bends and excessive pulling force, and verify DDM/DOM compatibility with your network hardware to enable remote monitoring.
