The Lenovo 00W0051 is a 1-meter passive copper direct-attach cable (DAC) featuring QSFP connectors and FDR14 (Fourteen Data Rate) InfiniBand specifications. Part number 00W0051 supports 56 Gbps throughput per lane and is designed for short-reach, low-latency cluster interconnects and high-performance computing environments. The passive copper construction eliminates active components, reducing cost and power consumption compared to active optical alternatives while maintaining full signal integrity over the 1-meter distance. Compatible with Lenovo and broader Mellanox/NVIDIA InfiniBand infrastructure, this cable is suitable for connecting switches, HCAs (host channel adapters), and storage systems in enterprise data centers, rendering farms, and HPC clusters. Typical deployments include server-to-switch, storage-to-switch, and switch-to-switch configurations requiring non-blocking fabric performance.Tested and guaranteed; available via quote.
