The JBX04248 InfiniBand HDR QSFP56 active optical cable represents a cutting-edge solution for modern data center networking infrastructure. This 2-meter breakout cable is specifically engineered as a direct replacement for HPE part number P26659-B21-2M, providing seamless compatibility with HPE server and storage systems that demand high-bandwidth interconnectivity. Technical Performance: With a 200GB data rate capability, this AOC delivers exceptional throughput for demanding applications including cloud computing, high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence workloads, and enterprise storage systems. The QSFP56 form factor represents the industry standard for next-generation interconnect, while the dual QSFP56 output configuration enables flexible network architecture design. Fiber Construction & Quality: The cable utilizes 8-strand OM3 50/125 multimode fiber, optimized for distances up to 2 meters with minimal signal degradation. This multimode configuration provides cost-effective performance while maintaining the signal integrity required for mission-critical applications. The fiber is protected by a durable plastic jacketing rated OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser), ensuring compliance with building fire codes and safety regulations. Compliance & Certifications: This product exceeds industry standards with comprehensive certifications including IEEE 802.3cd, CMIS specifications, RoHS/ELV compliance, and multiple safety certifications (Class 1 Laser, TUV, UL/FDA). The 90-day limited warranty provides confidence in product reliability. Operational Specifications: Designed to operate reliably across 0-70°C temperature ranges, this cable is suitable for standard data center environments. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) formulation reduces toxic fumes in case of fire, protecting personnel and equipment. Value Proposition: Offered with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, shipped from strategic US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC) for rapid delivery. Custom brand programming is available for enterprise customers requiring OEM-branded solutions. Ideal Applications: Perfect for HPE ProLiant server clustering, SANswitch fabric upgrades, and high-speed data center interconnect projects requiring proven compatibility and exceptional reliability.
