## Summary description

The BlueOptics Q28-AOC-50M-SO-BO is a 50m InfiniBand fibre optic cable featuring QSFP28 male connectors on both ends. It provides high-speed data transmission and is ideal for connecting data centers or high-performance computing environments. This cable ensures reliable performance and minimal signal loss over long distances.

## Long description

The BlueOptics Q28-AOC-50M-SO-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 50m QSFP28 Male/Male is a 50-metre active optical cable designed for high-bandwidth connections in data centers and high-performance computing environments. It uses QSFP28 male connectors on both ends to deliver reliable, low-latency data transmission over longer distances than passive copper alternatives. The cable supports InfiniBand signaling and is intended for applications requiring high throughput and signal integrity.
Advantages
This 50m QSFP28 AOC provides stable high-speed links with reduced electromagnetic interference and lower power consumption compared with equivalent copper cabling. Its optical design minimizes signal attenuation over long runs, enabling consistent performance across rack-to-rack and row-to-row connections. The connectorized ends simplify installation and replacement, while the cable construction supports continuous operation in dense equipment racks.
Suitable for
Interconnecting switches, servers and storage in data centers
High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabrics
Rack-to-rack and row-to-row high-bandwidth links
Latency-sensitive applications such as real-time data processing
Key specifications
Length: 50 metres
Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
Media: active optical cable (AOC)
Protocol compatibility: InfiniBand (QSFP28 signaling)
Performance: designed for high-bandwidth, low-latency transmission
How to use
Ensure both endpoints support QSFP28 interfaces and InfiniBand signaling before installation. Route the cable through the rack or cable management system avoiding tight bends and sharp edges; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Insert the QSFP28 connectors firmly into the transceiver ports until they click into place. For hot-pluggable equipment, connect or disconnect with the system powered down if required by the equipment vendor’s guidelines. Verify link status and performance through network management tools after installation.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, avoid compressing the cable and keep the bend radius within specified limits. Use proper cable management to reduce strain on connectors and to maintain airflow in racks. When mixing media types, confirm compatibility of gear and firmware with QSFP28 AOC links. Store unused cables in a dry, dust-free environment and inspect connector end-faces before mating.
