## Long description

The BlueOptics QSFP28-AOC-3M-BO InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 3m Male/Male is an active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 connectors designed for short-reach, high-bandwidth links. With a 3 meter length and QSFP28-to-QSFP28 connectivity, it supports 100G-class applications using multimode fiber and integrates transmitters and receivers on each end to maintain signal integrity for data center and networking environments.
Advantages
This BlueOptics QSFP28 AOC conforms to MSA QSFP28 form-factor expectations and is built for compatibility with major hardware platforms that support QSFP28 active optical links. The integrated optical transceivers reduce the need for additional patching and simplify cabling, while multimode fiber transmission minimizes electromagnetic interference. The cable includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) support for real-time metrics such as supply voltage, laser bias current, transmitted and received optical power, and temperature to assist maintenance and troubleshooting.
Suitable for
100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GBASE-SR4) short-reach uplinks between switches and leaf/spine fabrics
High-performance InfiniBand connections in compute and storage clusters
Interconnects for routers, storage systems, and network appliances requiring QSFP28 ports
Key specifications
Connector type: QSFP28 to QSFP28 (male/male)
Length: 3 meters
Transmission medium: multimode fibre (active optical cable)
Supported data rate: up to 100 Gbit/s
Protocol support: Ethernet, InfiniBand, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (as applicable)
Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support for real-time link parameters
How to use
Install the BlueOptics QSFP28-AOC-3M-BO by inserting each QSFP28 plug into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your compatible devices until the latch engages. Verify that the connected hardware supports QSFP28 AOC modules and, if required, enable or verify DDM/DOM support in the host system to access diagnostic data. No additional patch cords or transceiver modules are needed; the pre-terminated AOC provides a single-cable solution for short interconnects. After connection, check link status and throughput on your network equipment to confirm proper operation.
Usage recommendations
To maintain performance and service life, route the cable without tight bends and avoid kinks; observe manufacturer minimum bend radius for multimode fibre AOCs. Use this 3 m QSFP28 AOC for short-reach links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Confirm device compatibility lists and DDM/DOM support in your hardware prior to deployment to ensure full feature availability and remote diagnostics.
