## Long description

The ALCATEL BlueOptics OS6860-CBL-40 0.5 m is a short-length InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed links in data centers and enterprise networks, this 0.5 m male-to-male cable supports reliable, low-latency transmission between compatible QSFP ports. The cable's compact length and standardized QSFP interfaces make it suitable for dense rack environments and direct device-to-device connections where signal integrity and minimal insertion loss are required.
Advantages
The cable provides a compact and reliable connection with QSFP-to-QSFP termination, enabling high-bandwidth data transfer and low latency. Its short 0.5 m length reduces excess cabling, improves airflow in racks and minimizes signal degradation over the link. Constructed for consistent optical performance, the cable is suitable for demanding networking applications where predictable throughput and stability are important.
Suitable for
Direct connections between QSFP-enabled switches, routers and host adapters in data centers
Short-reach links inside server racks and network cabinets
High-performance computing clusters and storage networks requiring low-latency links
Test and lab environments where standardized QSFP optical connections are used
Key specifications
Cable type: InfiniBand / fibre optic
Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male on both ends
Length: 0.5 m
Polarity: standard QSFP optical polarity
Typical use: short-reach high-speed optical interconnect
Construction: optical fibres with reinforced jacket for data center use
How to use
Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector firmly into the corresponding QSFP port on devices to be connected, ensuring correct orientation and that latches engage. Avoid sharp bends and stress on the cable; maintain minimum bend radius as recommended by QSFP optical transceiver guidelines. Verify link status and speed on connected devices after installation and replace the cable if physical damage or degraded link performance is observed.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, use the 0.5 m length for short rack-to-rack or device-to-device connections where minimal cable slack is required. Keep connectors clean and protected when not in use, and route the cable to avoid kinking or compression. Confirm compatibility with QSFP ports and InfiniBand or supported fibre optic standards on both devices prior to deployment.
