  • Mellanox engineering ensures reliable InfiniBand EDR performance
  • QSFP connectors plug directly into compatible switches and adapters
  • First listed by the manufacturer in 2026

30-metre 100Gb/s active fibre cable

This Mellanox Technologies cable spans 30 metres and supports up to 100Gb/s throughput. It uses a QSFP form factor for InfiniBand EDR links. The active optical design maintains signal integrity over the full length. It suits high-performance compute clusters and storage fabrics.

Replacing copper or shorter-reach optics

The cable replaces direct-attach copper assemblies that cannot reach 30 metres at this speed. It also upgrades older active optical cables rated below 100Gb/s. The jump is worth it when rack-to-rack distance exceeds copper limits and bandwidth must stay at line rate.

Plug-and-play QSFP installation

Insert the QSFP modules into matching ports until the latches click; no driver load is required on the host. The most common issue is mismatched port speed configuration on the switch side. Dust on the fibre end-faces can also cause link errors, so clean before mating.

Questions about this item

What QSFP port spacing does the 30m active fiber cable require for installation?

The cable uses standard QSFP connectors that fit any compliant QSFP port on a switch or adapter.

How do I correctly seat the QSFP connectors on the 30m active fiber cable?

Align each connector with the port key, push straight in until the latch clicks, and avoid angling the module during insertion.

When should I plan to replace the 30m active fiber cable?

Replace the cable if link errors increase, the link fails to establish at 100Gb/s, or physical damage to the fiber or connectors is visible.
