Lenovo 00KF005 1.5M QSFP Passive DAC Cable

Overview

The Lenovo 00KF005 is a 1.5-meter passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable designed for high-speed network interconnects. It features QSFP connectors on both ends, supporting InfiniBand protocols for demanding data center and high-performance computing environments. This cable is suitable for short-reach, high-bandwidth applications where direct server-to-server or switch-to-switch connections are required.

Compatibility

This QSFP passive DAC cable is engineered for compatibility with systems utilizing QSFP ports and supporting InfiniBand protocols. It functions as a direct, passive connection, meaning it does not require power from the host system. Verify your network equipment, switches, and servers are equipped with QSFP ports and support the intended high-speed protocols for seamless integration.

Installation Notes

The Lenovo 00KF005 is a plug-and-play component. Ensure the QSFP ports on your devices are clean before insertion. The connectors are male-to-male and designed for a secure push-fit connection. The passive nature of the cable means no configuration is necessary on the cable itself. Its 1.5-meter length provides flexibility for rack-mounted equipment where devices are in close proximity.
