Passive and active well connected
InfiniBand DAC Direct Attach Copper Cable/AOC Active Optical Cable
Infiniband accessories: High-speed meshes for the fast network
If you are looking for leads for your InfiniBand infrastructure, you have found them here. We will provide you with everything you need.
The faster the transmission standard, the more error-free the components involved have to operate. This also applies to the InfiniBand peripherals. Direct Attach Copper Cables (DAC) and Active Optical Cables (AOC) as well as their associated splitter cables and transceivers must meet the highest standards to ensure smooth operation.
InfiniBand accessories for professionals
Starline has appropriate cables and accessories for the InfiniBand classes SDR, DDR, QDR, FDR10, FDR, EDR and HDR.
Your advantages with Starline:
- Low bit error rate
- High processing quality
- Sturdy design
- plug and play
Mellanox QSFP28 direct-attach copper (DAC) cables ensure robust connectivity for 100 Gbps Ethernet systems and InfiniBand EDR, respectively. Passive copper cables require no additional power supply for high-quality connectivity. They conform to SFF-8665 specifications and connect devices with QSFP28 ports. Each connector has a built-in EEPROM that can be read by the host system.

Mellanox fiber optic cables from the MFA1A00 based on QSFP28 VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser) are designed for use in InfiniBand 100 Gbit/s EDR systems. These AOCs are popular interconnects for very fast High Performance Computing (HPC) environments because they offer predictable latency and require very low power (2.2W). Since they are hot pluggable, they are easy to install and replace. An MFA1A00 cable has an SFF-8665 compliant QSFP28 connector on the electrical side.

Your benefits
Starline quality
Experienced and trained technicians do performance and functional checks and offer quick help in case of failure.
Starline has been active in the sector since 1982 and is a specialist in all aspects of data storage.
We know which components work together because we test the connectivity extensively in advance.
Our role
Rely on tested quality
Our employees are at your side: Right from the start you will receive detailed advice from personal contact persons. They are available as well as our technical support five days a week. We even offer a 24x7x4 service.
From service contracts and customs clearance to financing models – we offer everything from one source.
With Starline you are not on the proverbial hook once you have bought something. Starline is an independent medium-sized company that produces servers and storage systems in Germany. Our suppliers - from cables to screws to SSDs - have to undergo internal benchmarking by our technicians and are only included in the programme when their performance is beyond doubt. We also rely on cross-manufacturer standards and not on isolated solutions. Moreover, all systems assembled by us are put through their paces before they leave our premises. And last but not least: We look after you whenever you wish - for example, by providing free advice before the purchase and free technical support afterwards.
As an independent company, Starline offers servers and storage systems "Made in Germany". All devices are put through their paces before they leave our premises. In addition, we offer free advice before the purchase and free technical support afterwards - even after the warranty has expired.
The answer is clear: both! We sell and install both ready-made components - where we always install new drives, install any firmware updates and customise them - and hand-assembled systems that are completely tailored to your needs. For the latter, we use our own brands NASdeluxe, RAIDdeluxe and Zealbox, for example. All of them consist of high-quality industrial-grade components, right down to the screws.
We offer a wide range of free and bookable services. You can find a detailed overview here.
