BlueOptics AA1404031-E6-NT InfiniBand/optický kábel 3 m QSFP konektor samec/konektor samec

The BlueOptics AA1404031-E6-NT InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 3 m QSFP Male/Male is a 3-metre multimode fibre assembly with QSFP-form-factor connectors at both ends. It is intended for high-speed links in data centre and high-performance computing environments where low latency and reliable signal integrity are required. The cable supports short-range optical transmission between QSFP-enabled switches, host adapters and similar networking equipment, enabling stable connectivity for cluster interconnects and storage networks.

Advantages

This QSFP Male/Male cable provides a standardized optical interface for InfiniBand and fibre optic networks, offering consistent signal quality and minimal insertion loss. Its 3 m length balances reach and cable management in rack-mounted installations. The use of QSFP connectors ensures compatibility with a wide range of high-density networking ports, while the assembled fibre construction reduces the risk of connector damage compared with field-terminated solutions.

Suitable for

• Connecting QSFP-enabled switches and network adapters within racks or between adjacent racks
• InfiniBand cluster interconnects for high-performance computing
• Short-reach fibre links in data centre top-of-rack and aggregation layers
• High-throughput storage area network (SAN) links where QSFP ports are used

Key specifications

• Cable type: Multimode fibre optic
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Length: 3 metres
• Intended application: Short-range InfiniBand and fibre optic links
• Usage environment: Data centre and high-performance computing

How to use

Install the cable by aligning each QSFP connector with the corresponding QSFP port on your network device and gently insert until the connector latches. Ensure the ports on both ends are QSFP-compatible and that devices are powered down or follow hot-plug procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive strain; maintain the minimum bend radius specified by standard multimode fibre practice. Verify link status in your switch or adapter management interface after installation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this 3 m QSFP cable for short-reach connections within racks or between adjacent racks and avoid exposure to excessive mechanical stress. Keep connector end faces clean and inspect them before installation to prevent signal degradation. Follow equipment vendor guidance for supported link speeds and transceiver compatibility when deploying in InfiniBand or fibre optic networks.
