## Summary description

BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP56 connectors at both ends. Length 5 m, male-to-male QSFP56 terminations, orange jacket, weight 0.23 kg. Designed for high-speed data links in data centres, HPC clusters and server interconnects, providing a compact QSFP56 direct-attach solution for short-reach connections.

## Long description

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.
Suitable for
 Interconnects between switches, routers and servers in data centres
 High-performance computing (HPC) clusters and storage fabrics
 Short-reach aggregation and spine connections in rack deployments
 Environments requiring 200G-capable links using QSFP56 interfaces
Key specifications
 Cable length: 5 m
 Connector type: QSFP56 to QSFP56 (male-to-male)
 Nominal data rate: up to 200 Gbit/s (200GBASE-SR4 compatible)
 Transmission medium: multi-mode fibre with active optical transceivers integrated
 Jacket colour: orange
 Weight: approx. 0.23 kg
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.
Usage 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.
