BlueOptics QSFP-100G-AOC2M-BO InfiniBand optický kábel 2 m QSFP28 oranžový

The BlueOptics QSFP-100G-AOC2M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 2-meter active optical cable with QSFP28 male-to-male connectors designed for 100G data transmission over multimode fibre. Compliant with MSA-defined QSFP28 form factor and supporting 100GBASE-SR4 style applications, the cable integrates optical transmitters and receivers at each end to deliver high-bandwidth, low-latency links suitable for modern data centre and high-performance networking environments.

Advantages

This 2 m AOC provides native QSFP28 connectivity without separate transceivers, reducing power consumption and simplifying installation compared with equivalent copper or transceiver-plus-patch solutions. The integrated transmitter/receiver design ensures consistent optical performance over the specified multimode link length, and compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP28 AOCs supports straightforward system integration in switches, routers and storage platforms that follow MSA guidelines.

Suitable for

• High-density data centre uplinks and leaf-spine fabric connections
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch 100G links within rack or adjacent racks
• High-performance computing clusters using InfiniBand or Ethernet at 100G

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 male-to-male
• Length: 2 meters
• Transmission type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with integrated Tx/Rx modules
• Supported data rate: up to 100 Gbit/s
• Optical medium: multimode fibre suitable for SR4-style 100G links
• Form factor: QSFP28 (MSA compatible)

How to use

Insert each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on network devices until the latch engages. Ensure ports are powered and configured for 100G operation according to the device documentation. No separate transceivers or patch cords are required; the cable provides a single-cable solution for direct 100G links. For initial deployment, verify link state and error counters in the device management interface to confirm proper negotiation and signal integrity.

Recommendations

Use this BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC for short-reach 100G interconnects within racks or between adjacent racks. Avoid tight bends and maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius for multimode fibre. Verify device compatibility and firmware support for third-party AOCs where equipment vendor policies require it.
