InfiniBand/fibre optic cable BlueOptics MMA1B00-C100D-BO 1 m QSFP Male/Male

The BlueOptics MMA1B00-C100D-BO is a 1 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP male-to-male connectors designed for short-reach, high-speed interconnects. It provides a direct connection between QSFP ports and is intended for data center rack-to-rack or intra-rack links where InfiniBand or 40G-class Ethernet connectivity is required. The cable is built to support reliable transmission in environments that use QSFP interfaces and compatible 40G transceiver standards.

Advantages

This 1 m QSFP male-to-male cable offers a compact, low-latency physical link suitable for short-distance high-bandwidth connections. It is designed to meet established MSA electrical and mechanical interface expectations for QSFP connectivity, enabling interoperability with hardware platforms that accept QSFP QSFP direct attach links. The cable’s form factor and construction aim to deliver stable signal transmission for InfiniBand and 40G applications while minimizing power consumption and installation complexity.

Key specifications

• Cable type: InfiniBand / fibre optic QSFP direct attach style (QSFP male to QSFP male)
• Length: 1 meter
• Connector type: QSFP male on both ends
• Supported protocols: InfiniBand and 40G-class Ethernet (40GBase-compatible applications)
• Designed for short-reach, high-bandwidth links inside racks and between adjacent racks

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP cable by aligning and inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port until the connector latches. Use the cable to link QSFP-capable ports on switches, servers, or storage devices according to the hardware vendor’s port configuration and supported protocols. Verify the connected devices support passive QSFP direct-attach or the specified InfiniBand/40G mode and check link status through system management interfaces after installation.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m QSFP cable for short-distance links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Avoid tight bends and excessive stress on the connectors; maintain minimum bend radius specified by the hardware vendor. Confirm compatibility with device firmware and QSFP port configurations before deployment and perform a link test after installation to ensure correct operation.
