BlueOptics 100G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-30M-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 30m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics 100G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-30M-BO is a 30-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 male-to-male connectors designed for high-speed InfiniBand and 100G Ethernet interconnects in data centre and enterprise networks. It implements the 100GBASE-SR4 transmission profile over multimode fibre with integrated transmitter and receiver modules at each end, providing a pre-assembled, low-maintenance optical link that removes the need for patching or separate transceivers.

Advantages

This AOC supports full-duplex 100G data transmission over 30 metres using QSFP28 to QSFP28 connectivity, with digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time status of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmitted and received optical power, and temperature. Manufactured to MSA-compliant mechanical and electrical specifications, the cable uses industry-grade optical and electronic components and is tested for interoperability with major switch, router and storage platforms that accept QSFP28 AOC modules. The integrated design reduces EMI susceptibility and simplifies installation and maintenance while offering a long operational lifetime and a manufacturer-backed functional warranty.

Suitable for

• 100G inter-switch links in data centre racks
• High-throughput server-to-switch or storage-to-switch connections
• Low-latency, high-bandwidth fabrics and InfiniBand clusters
• Short-reach optical links inside equipment cabinets or between adjacent racks

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP28 male to QSFP28 male
• Length: 30 metres
• Supported protocol: 100GBASE-SR4 / 100G Ethernet and compatible InfiniBand profiles
• Fibre type: Multimode optical fibre (AOC assembly)
• Transmission: Full-duplex optical laser transmit and receive per end
• Diagnostics: Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with SFF-8472
• Standards compliance: QSFP28 MSA mechanical/electrical profile, CE, RoHS, FCC where applicable

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 100G-QSFP-QSFP-AOC-30M-BO by inserting each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding QSFP28 port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-swap guidelines of your hardware vendor if plugging into live systems. Verify link status and diagnostic readings via the host equipment management interface to confirm correct operation and signal levels. No separate transceivers or fibre patching is required; handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends to preserve optical performance.

Recommendations

Use this AOC for short-reach, high-bandwidth links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Confirm host device compatibility with QSFP28 AOC modules and enable DDM/DOM support if you require remote monitoring. Maintain minimum bend radius as specified by your equipment policies and keep connectors free of dust before insertion to ensure optimal signal integrity.
