BlueOptics CBL-NTWK-0943-SQ28C10M-BL Cavo InfiniBand 10 m QSFP28 arancione

The BlueOptics CBL-NTWK-0943-SQ28C10M-BL is a high-performance InfiniBand Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable designed for demanding data center and high-performance computing (HPC) environments. This passive twinax cable features QSFP28 connectors on both ends, delivering 100 Gb/s data rates compliant with InfiniBand EDR and 100 Gigabit Ethernet standards. With a length of 10 meters and 26 AWG construction, it ensures reliable, low-latency connectivity for server, storage, and switch interconnects.

Advantages

Optimized for high-speed data transmission with minimal power consumption (<0.5 W), this cable offers a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution for short-range links. The orange PVC jacket provides easy identification and durability, while hot-swappable connectors simplify installation and maintenance. Compliance with SFF-8665 and IBTA standards guarantees interoperability with a wide range of QSFP28 equipment.
