## Summary description

BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP56 connectors on both ends, 5 m length and orange jacket.

Lightweight (0.23 kg) cable for rack and chassis connections.

## Long description

BlueOptics QSFP56–QSFP56 fibre optic cable, 5 m length with an orange jacket, is an active optical cable (AOC) designed for short-range InfiniBand and Ethernet interconnects in data center and high-performance computing environments. The assembly features QSFP56 male connectors on both ends and is intended for direct rack- or chassis-level connections between servers, switches and storage systems that accept QSFP56 interfaces. The lightweight construction (0.23 kg) and standardized connector form factor enable straightforward installation in dense networking setups.
Advantages
This BlueOptics AOC provides high aggregate bandwidth up to 200 Gbit/s in short-reach multimode links while maintaining compatibility with systems that support QSFP56 connections. The integrated transmitter and receiver electronics on each end convert electrical signals to optical and back, reducing the need for separate transceivers and simplifying cabling. The orange jacket improves visibility and routing identification in crowded racks, and the 5 m length balances reach and signal integrity for typical top-of-rack and adjacent-rack connections.
Suitable for
 Short-range InfiniBand links between servers and switches in data centers
 200G Ethernet connections such as 200GBASE-SR4 within racks or between adjacent racks
 High-performance computing (HPC) clusters requiring low-latency, high-throughput links
 Interconnects for storage arrays and aggregation switches using QSFP56 ports
Key specifications
 Cable length: 5 m
 Connector type (each end): QSFP56 male
 Technology: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with integrated transceivers
 Supported aggregate data rate: up to 200 Gbit/s for short-reach applications
 Fiber type: multimode (for short-range high-speed links)
 Product colour: orange
 Weight: 0.23 kg
How to use
Ensure both devices have compatible QSFP56 interfaces and support the targeted protocol (InfiniBand or 200G Ethernet). Power down or follow hot-plug precautions as required by your hardware vendor, then insert the QSFP56 connectors firmly into the corresponding ports until the latch engages. Route the 5 m cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. After connection, verify link status and negotiated speed through the switch or host management interface and check for any required firmware or configuration settings to enable the desired link mode.
Usage recommendations
Use this BlueOptics QSFP56–QSFP56 AOC for short-distance, high-throughput connections inside racks or between adjacent racks. Keep the cable free from sharp bends and excessive pulling, store spare cables in a looped manner without kinks, and confirm device compatibility and supported link modes before deployment to ensure reliable 200G performance.
