InfiniBand-/Glasfaserkábel BlueOptics QSFP56 na QSFP56 5 m oranžová

The BlueOptics InfiniBand / fibre optic cable QSFP56 to QSFP56 5 m in orange is an active optical cable designed for short-range, high-speed interconnects in data centers and high-performance computing environments. Equipped with QSFP56 connectors on both ends and a fixed 5 m length, this AOC provides a compact optical link for QSFP56-compatible ports and supports multi-mode fibre transmission for reliable rack-to-rack or device-to-device connections.

Advantages

This BlueOptics cable follows MSA-compliant QSFP56 interface standards and integrates transmitters and receivers on each connector end, enabling optical signal transfer over multimode fiber. It supports high aggregated throughput suitable for 200G applications on short links, while offering a lightweight and brightly colored orange jacket for easy identification in dense cabling environments. The male-to-male QSFP56 configuration simplifies connection to QSFP56 ports without additional adapters.

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure both endpoints support QSFP56 AOC modules and that the equipment firmware or driver supports third-party AOCs. Power off or follow hot-plug guidelines of the host devices as required by the vendor, then insert each QSFP56 connector into the corresponding QSFP56 port until it latches. Verify link status LEDs or management interfaces to confirm an active connection. For removal, disengage the latch and pull the connector straight out, handling the cable by the connector to avoid stress on the fibre.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. Label both ends when deploying multiple orange cables to simplify identification. Use this AOC for short-reach 200G links where QSFP56 ports are supported and verify compatibility with specific switch or server models before large-scale deployment.
