This Lenovo splitter cable divides one QSFP56 port into two QSFP56 connections, enabling users to expand their InfiniBand network links without additional switches. Often found in data centers, it helps optimize port usage where high bandwidth and low latency are critical.

Built for environments running HDR100 InfiniBand, it suits system admins and network engineers managing HPC clusters or storage networks requiring rapid data transfers. The passive copper design keeps installation simple and maintenance low.

Key Features

• Splits a single QSFP56 interface into two separate QSFP56 connections
• Compatible with HDR100 InfiniBand speeds up to 100 Gbps
• 1.5-meter length balances reach and signal integrity
• Passive copper cable minimizes power requirements and complexity
• Compact design fits densely packed networking racks

This cable is typically deployed in high-performance computing setups and enterprise data centers where port expansion is needed without adding active hardware. It streamlines hardware setups and helps maintain consistent network performance across multiple InfiniBand endpoints.
