## Summary description

The BlueOptics 100G-Q28-Q28-C-0301-BL is a 3 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable featuring QSFP28 connectors. It provides high-speed data transfer and reliable connectivity for data centers and high-performance computing environments. Designed for male-to-male connections, it ensures optimal performance in demanding applications.

## Long description

The BlueOptics 100G-Q28-Q28-C-0301-BL is a 3 m InfiniBand/fibre optic active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 male-to-male connectors designed for 100G data transmission. It supports multimode fiber transmission and interfaces that conform to QSFP28 MSA standards, enabling high-throughput, low-latency connections between switches, routers, storage systems and compute nodes in data centre and high-performance computing environments. The cable integrates optical transmitters and receivers on both ends to deliver a pre-assembled fiber link suitable for plug-and-play installation.
Advantages
The 3 m BlueOptics AOC provides high bandwidth and signal integrity while avoiding susceptibility to electromagnetic interference typical of copper links. As a QSFP28-to-QSFP28 AOC it eliminates the need for connector polishing or patching and reduces insertion loss compared with discrete patch-cord assemblies. The integrated digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) capability enables real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output and input power, and temperature to support remote troubleshooting and maintenance. Manufactured to MSA-compliant mechanical and electrical specifications, the cable is compatible with hardware that supports QSFP28 100G AOCs.
Suitable for
High-speed server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections in data centres
Interconnects for storage arrays and SAN environments
High-performance computing clusters and GPU node links
Short-reach 100G Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), or InfiniBand links
Key specifications
Length: 3 m
Connector type: QSFP28 male-to-male
Transmission: 100G (100GBASE-SR4 compatible multimode optical transmission)
Optical fiber type: multimode fiber AOC
MSA compliance: QSFP28 AOC electrical and mechanical specifications
Monitoring: Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) per SFF-8472
Typical use case: short-reach data centre interconnects
How to use
Install the BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC by inserting each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your networking or storage device until it latches. Ensure both devices support QSFP28 AOCs and, if you require monitoring data, confirm the host hardware supports DDM/DOM. Once connected the link typically negotiates automatically; verify link state and speed in the device management interface. Handle the cable by the connector bodies and avoid bending the cable beyond manufacturer-recommended bend radii to preserve optical performance.
Usage recommendations
Use the BlueOptics 3 m QSFP28 AOC for short-reach 100G links within racks or between adjacent racks. Verify device compatibility and enable digital diagnostics in host firmware for proactive link monitoring. Store and route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; follow standard ESD precautions when handling connector ends.
