CBO BlueOptics QSFP fiber cable BO252503K5M 5 m

The CBO BlueOptics QSFP fiber cable BO252503K5M 5 m is a factory-terminated multimode fiber patch cable designed for QSFP ports and short-reach optical links. With a five-metre length it provides a direct fiber connection between QSFP transceivers and switches or other high-speed networking equipment in data centres and telecom racks. The cable is intended to deliver reliable optical performance for 40G and compatible QSFP link applications while keeping installation and cable routing straightforward.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP fiber cable offers a pre-terminated, tested assembly that reduces installation time and the need for field termination. The standardized QSFP connector interface ensures compatibility with equipment that supports QSFP form-factor transceivers. A 5 m length balances reach and cable management in rack environments, and the multimode fiber construction supports high-bandwidth short-distance links with consistent attenuation and signal integrity.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between QSFP-capable switches and transceivers in data centres
• Server-to-switch short-reach optical links
• Patch panel to equipment connections in telecom racks
• High-density cabling setups where pre-terminated assemblies simplify deployment

Key specifications

• Cable type: factory-terminated multimode fiber patch cable
• Connector type: QSFP-compatible connectors for QSFP ports
• Length: 5 m
• Intended link distance: short-reach data centre and telecom connections
• Application: optical interconnects for high-speed networking equipment

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP fiber cable by aligning and inserting the QSFP connectors into the corresponding QSFP ports on transceivers or switches until they click into place. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it along rack pathways or cable management trays to maintain the specified minimum bend radius. Verify link status on connected devices and, if necessary, inspect end-face condition and cleanliness prior to insertion to ensure optimal optical performance.

Usage recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid touching the fiber end faces. Keep the cable within recommended bend radius limits and store spare cable assemblies in protective reels or bags to prevent contamination and mechanical stress. For best results, confirm compatibility with the transceiver type and QSFP port specifications before deployment.
