## Summary description

BlueOptics MCP1600-E002E26-BL is a QSFP28 direct attach copper cable designed for 100GBASE‑CR4 and Infiniband EDR links. The 2 meter twinax assembly uses 30AWG conductors and provides a passive, low-latency connection between QSFP28 ports for short-reach data center interconnects, top-of-rack switching and server links.

## Long description

The BlueOptics MCP1600-E002E26-BL is a QSFP28 direct attach copper (DAC) cable engineered for 100GBASE-CR4 Ethernet and InfiniBand EDR connections. This 2 meter twinax assembly features 30AWG conductors and a passive design that delivers low-latency, high-throughput links between QSFP28 ports. The cable is intended for short-reach data center interconnects, top-of-rack switches and direct server connections where a reliable, cost-effective copper solution is required.
Advantages
The passive QSFP28 twinax design offers minimal latency and low power consumption compared with active or optical alternatives. Its 30AWG conductors and factory-terminated QSFP28 plugs ensure consistent signal integrity across short distances, while the 2 m length provides flexibility for rack and cabinet layouts. Being a direct attach copper cable, it simplifies installation and reduces the number of components required for short-range 100G and EDR links.
Suitable for
 Short-reach 100GBASE-CR4 Ethernet interconnects in data centers
 InfiniBand EDR links between servers and switches
 Top-of-rack to aggregation switch connections
 Direct server-to-server high-bandwidth links within racks
Key specifications
 Connector type: QSFP28 to QSFP28 direct attach copper
 Supported protocols: 100GBASE-CR4, InfiniBand EDR
 Cable type: Passive twinax copper
 Conductor gauge: 30 AWG
 Length: 2 m
 Latency: passive, low-latency design suitable for short-reach links
 Typical applications: data center short-reach interconnects, server and switch links
How to use
Install the cable by aligning each QSFP28 plug with the corresponding port and inserting until the latch engages. Verify that the connected devices recognize the link and negotiate the appropriate 100G or EDR speed. For best results, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain recommended bend radius. The cable is designed for plug-and-play use in compatible QSFP28 ports without additional configuration in most environments.
Usage recommendations
Use the cable for short, direct connections within racks or between adjacent racks; avoid extended runs beyond the specified 2 m length. Ensure QSFP28 ports on both endpoints support passive DAC operation for 100GBASE-CR4 or InfiniBand EDR. Handle connectors by their housings, keep contact areas free of dust, and store unused cables in a protected environment to preserve performance.
