## Summary description

Direct attach QSFP copper cable by BlueOptics, 2 meters long, supporting 56 Gbps aggregate bandwidth and compatible with InfiniBand FDR. Constructed with 28AWG conductors for high-speed short-reach connections between switches, NICs or storage devices. Suitable for data centre rack-to-rack links, HPC clusters and low-latency server interconnects.

## Long description

BlueOptics QSFP Direct Attach Cable 2m is a pre-terminated copper interconnect designed for short-reach, high-speed links. The 2 meter cable uses a QSFP connector form factor and supports an aggregate data rate up to 56 Gbps, making it suitable for InfiniBand FDR environments and other applications that require low-latency, high-throughput connections between switches, network interface cards and storage systems.
Advantages
This direct attach cable provides a cost-effective, low-power alternative to optical transceivers for short distances. Construction with 28AWG conductors delivers signal integrity for 56 Gbps aggregate throughput while the QSFP termination ensures compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP direct attach solutions. The fixed-length, pre-terminated design reduces installation time and simplifies rack-to-rack and intra-rack cabling.
Suitable for
Data centre rack-to-rack connections
High-performance computing (HPC) clusters
Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links requiring InfiniBand FDR performance
Short-reach storage networking and SAN interconnects
Key specifications
Cable type: QSFP direct attach copper (DAC)
Length: 2 meters
Aggregate data rate: up to 56 Gbps
Conductor gauge: 28 AWG
Application: InfiniBand FDR and compatible high-speed interconnects
Form factor: QSFP termination for four-lane, high-density ports
How to use
Insert each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on the devices to be connected, ensuring latch engagement and correct orientation. Verify that both ends are properly seated and that the host devices recognize the link. For best performance, maintain recommended bend radii and avoid excessive strain on the cable assembly during routing. No additional configuration is required beyond standard interface setup on the connected equipment.
Usage recommendations
Use this 2m QSFP direct attach cable for short-distance links inside racks or between adjacent racks where optical transceivers are not necessary. Avoid installation in pathways with tight bends or mechanical stress; maintain clean connector interfaces and follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidelines for QSFP modules and InfiniBand FDR deployments.
