BlueOptics InfiniBand/optický kábel QSFP56–QSFP56, 5 m, oranžový

BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable QSFP56–QSFP56, 5 m, orange is a 5-metre active optical direct-attach cable designed for short-reach high-speed links. It features male QSFP56 connectors on both ends and an orange jacket for easy identification. The cable supports multi-mode optical transmission with integrated transmitters and receivers at each end to enable up to 200 Gbit/s connectivity for data centre and HPC interconnects while remaining compact and suitable for dense rack deployments.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP56–QSFP56 AOC provides low-latency, high-bandwidth optical connectivity in a single, factory-terminated assembly. The pre-terminated active optical cable eliminates field termination and reduces signal loss compared with copper alternatives at equivalent speeds. The 5 m length balances reach and manageability in rack and row top-of-rack installations, and the orange jacket improves visual routing and identification in multi-cable environments. Designed to meet MSA connector form-factor expectations, the cable is compatible with network equipment that accepts QSFP56 AOCs.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by aligning and inserting each QSFP56 plug into the corresponding QSFP56 port on your equipment until the latch engages. Ensure ports are powered down if required by your hardware vendor before insertion or removal. Route the cable within the rack to avoid sharp bends and maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. No field termination is required; the active optical modules handle signal conversion and compensation for the specified reach.

Recommendations

Verify that your switches, routers or host adapters officially support QSFP56 AOC modules and the target transmission protocol (for example 200GBASE-SR4 or compatible multiplexing schemes). Maintain a clean connector environment when connecting to active optical interfaces and avoid excessive bending or compressing the cable. For inventory and troubleshooting, use the orange jacket as a visual identifier for short-reach AOC links.
