Lenovo 00MP520 Mellanox 2.5ft QSFP28 to QSFP28 Infiniband Cable

The Lenovo 00MP520 is a 2.5-foot InfiniBand cable that uses QSFP28 connectors on both ends. Designed for direct attachment, it lets administrators link Lenovo servers, switches, or storage nodes without an intermediary patch panel, keeping latency low and bandwidth potential high.

Both connectors use a female configuration, so the cable slips directly into QSFP28 ports found on Lenovo systems that carry part numbers 0724017, 0724020, 0724021, 072403X, 072404X, 072415X, and 072416X. When paired with these systems, the cable creates a reliable pathway for data-intensive workloads such as high-performance computing, clustered databases, or real-time analytics.

The round construction and red outer jacket simplify cable management inside a crowded rack. Technicians can spot the link quickly during maintenance, trace its route with minimal effort, and route it through standard cable guides without sharp bends.

At only 2.5 feet, the cable is sized for equipment that sits in the same rack or on neighboring rails. This length helps eliminate excess slack, improves airflow, and reduces the chance of signal degradation often associated with longer runs.
