## Long description

The BlueOptics BOQ1Q101X0.5M-BL is a high-performance passive QSFP112 direct attach copper cable engineered for demanding 400GBASE Ethernet and Infiniband network environments. Measuring 0.5 meters in length, this cable is specifically designed to provide reliable, low-latency data transmission for high-speed server interconnects and data center switching applications. It serves as a robust and efficient solution for short-range connectivity requirements within modern enterprise networking infrastructures, ensuring seamless integration and stable performance.
Advantages
This passive copper cable offers significant benefits for high-density networking environments by eliminating the need for active optical components, which reduces power consumption and heat generation. Its design ensures minimal signal latency, making it an ideal choice for time-sensitive data center operations. The compact 0.5-meter length is optimized for rack-to-rack or switch-to-server connections, helping to maintain organized cable management while providing the high bandwidth required for 400GBASE Ethernet and Infiniband standards.
Suitable for
High-speed server-to-switch interconnects
Data center rack-to-rack connectivity
High-performance computing clusters
Enterprise network infrastructure upgrades
When it may not be suitable
This cable is not suitable for long-distance networking applications, as its passive copper design is limited to short-range connections. It should not be used in environments requiring cable lengths exceeding the specified 0.5 meters, as signal integrity cannot be guaranteed beyond this distance.
Key specifications
Connector type: QSFP112
Cable type: Passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC)
Data rate: 400GBASE
Length: 0.5 meters
Compatibility: Ethernet and Infiniband standards
How to use
To use the BlueOptics QSFP112 cable, simply insert the connector into the corresponding QSFP112 port on your networking hardware, such as a switch or server network interface card. Ensure that the connector is fully seated until it clicks into place. No external power supply or configuration is required, as the cable is a passive component that is automatically recognized by the host device upon connection.
What to consider before purchase
Verify that your networking equipment supports the QSFP112 interface.
Ensure the 0.5-meter length is sufficient for your specific rack layout.
Confirm that your network infrastructure operates on 400GBASE Ethernet or Infiniband protocols.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance and to prevent damage to the connectors, ensure that the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius and avoid applying excessive tension to the cable during installation.
