## Summary description

The BlueOptics PAN-QSFP28-AOC-3M-BO is a 3-meter InfiniBand fibre optic cable with QSFP28 connectors. It features male-to-male connectors, ensuring high-speed data transfer and reliable connectivity for data centers and high-performance computing environments.

## Long description

The BlueOptics PAN-QSFP28-AOC-3M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 3‑metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 male-to-male connectors designed for high-speed links in data centre and high-performance computing environments. The cable implements QSFP28-to-QSFP28 connectivity according to MSA-guided physical interfaces and integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end to carry optical signals over multimode fibre. It is compatible with systems accepting QSFP28 AOC modules and supports short-reach high-bandwidth applications.
Advantages
This 3 m BlueOptics AOC provides a compact, low-latency connection for 100G-class links without separate transceivers or patch cords. Integrated optical transceivers reduce component count and simplify installation while maintaining signal integrity across the short multimode channel. The QSFP28 form factor ensures compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP28 active cables, enabling straightforward direct connections between switches, routers, servers and storage nodes in high-density racks.
Suitable for
 Short-reach 100G links in data centres and server rooms
 Direct connections between switches, routers, servers and storage
 High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand environments
 Cabling inside high-density rack and enclosure deployments
Key specifications
 Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
 Length: 3 metres
 Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
 Supported data rate: up to 100 Gbit/s per link (short-reach)
 Optical medium: multimode fibre with integrated Tx/Rx modules
 Form factor: QSFP28
How to use
Insert each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your network equipment until it clicks, ensuring the correct orientation and secure seating. No separate transceivers or fibre patching are required; the cable carries both transmit and receive optical modules in the AOC assembly. After connection, verify link status and negotiated speed on the devices and check for proper cooling and airflow in the rack to maintain signal performance.
Usage recommendations
Use the cable for short-reach 100G links in environments that support QSFP28 AOC modules. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force, maintain recommended bend radius for the AOC assembly, and ensure ports are powered down or link-safe during insertion or removal when possible. Verify device compatibility with QSFP28 AOC modules before deployment and follow manufacturer guidance for hot-plug operations.
