Nvidia MFS1S00-H005V InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5 m QSFP56 Black Blue

The Nvidia MFS1S00-H005V InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5 m QSFP56 Black Blue is a high-speed interconnect cable designed for data centers and high-performance computing environments. This 5-metre cable uses QSFP56 connectors to support InfiniBand protocols, providing a reliable optical link for latency-sensitive and bandwidth-intensive applications. The robust jacket and precise connector alignment ensure consistent signal integrity over the full cable length.

Advantages

The cable delivers high data throughput and low latency suitable for cluster nodes, storage arrays, and networking equipment. Its fibre optic design reduces electromagnetic interference and heat generation compared with copper alternatives. Durable construction and secure QSFP56 terminations aid long-term reliability and ease of handling in rack and cable-management setups.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch InfiniBand links in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters and GPU direct communication
• Storage area networks and high-throughput backup systems
• Low-latency trading platforms and real-time data processing

Key specifications

• Cable type: single-mode or multimode fibre optic (verify system compatibility)
• Connector type: QSFP56 at both ends for 56 Gpbs per lane physical interface compatibility
• Length: 5 metres
• Colour: black with blue identification marking
• Jacket: durable outer jacket suitable for rack environments
• Operating environment: engineered for data center temperature ranges and continuous operation

How to use

Inspect both QSFP56 connectors and switch ports for dust or damage before installation. Align the connector keying when inserting the QSFP56 plug into the port until it seats securely; do not force the connector. Route the cable following rack and airflow guidelines, avoiding sharp bends that can exceed the fibre minimum bend radius. When removing the cable, release any latching mechanism on the connector before pulling to prevent damage.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, pair this InfiniBand fibre cable with compatible QSFP56-enabled switches and host adapters, maintain clean connector endfaces using appropriate fibre-cleaning tools, and verify link status after installation. Use proper cable management to prevent stress on connectors and to preserve signal integrity.
