BlueOptics AOC-Q-Q-40G-3M-BO InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 3m QSFP stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics AOC-Q-Q-40G-3M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 3-meter active optical cable with QSFP male-to-male connectors designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers and high-performance computing environments. The cable supports InfiniBand link architectures and provides a compact, low-latency connection between compatible QSFP ports. Its construction focuses on signal integrity and consistent performance over short to mid-range interconnects.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable 40G-class connectivity with reduced electromagnetic interference compared to copper solutions, and its active optical design enables low power consumption and stable throughput. With QSFP male connectors on both ends and a 3 m length, it simplifies rack-to-rack or within-rack connections while minimizing cable bulk. The product is suited to environments requiring predictable latency and sustained data rates.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting QSFP ports in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabrics
• Server-to-switch or switch-to-switch short-range links
• Environments where reduced EMI and lightweight cabling are required

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Supported link speed class: 40G-class InfiniBand performance
• Length: 3 meters
• Transmission medium: Fibre optic
• Typical use range: Short to mid-range interconnects (within and between racks)
• Design focus: Low latency and signal integrity for high-throughput applications

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AOC-Q-Q-40G-3M-BO by aligning each QSFP male connector with the corresponding QSFP port on your devices and inserting until the connector latches. Verify that devices recognise the link and configure port settings according to your network or InfiniBand fabric requirements. Avoid tight bends and sharp kinks; maintain gentle bend radii to preserve optical performance. For best results, route the cable to prevent excessive stress on the connectors and ensure adequate airflow around equipment.

Recommendations

Use this 3 m QSFP-to-QSFP AOC for short-range data center interconnects where low latency and stable 40G-class throughput are required. Inspect connectors for dust and contamination before installation and follow standard fibre handling practices. If compatibility issues arise, confirm QSFP port firmware and transceiver support on connected devices.
