Product Overview

The Lenovo 15m Mellanox EDR IB Optical QSFP28 Cable is engineered for ultra-fast data transmission in high-performance computing and enterprise networking. Designed with QSFP28 male connectors on both ends, this active optical cable supports Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) Infiniband standards, making it ideal for applications that demand high bandwidth and low latency over extended distances. Its 15-meter length provides flexibility in equipment placement while maintaining signal integrity and low error rates.

Constructed as an Active Optical Cable (AOC), it utilizes optical fiber technology to overcome the length limitations of traditional copper cables. This makes it particularly suited for inter-rack or cross-room installations in modern data centers, enhancing scalability without sacrificing transfer speed. Its compliance with TAA requirements supports use in U.S. government and regulated industry deployments, adding to its strategic value in sensitive installations.

Manufactured in Mexico, the cable offers reliability and performance under demanding operational conditions. Whether you're building out a performance-intensive HPC cluster or scaling enterprise networking infrastructure, this Lenovo 15m QSFP28 AOC offers a solution that balances performance, distance, and regulatory compliance.
