BlueOptics CBL-0310-010-BO InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 10 m QSFP male/male

The BlueOptics CBL-0310-010-BO is a 10 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP male connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers and network environments. This active optical cable (AOC) supports multimode fibre transmission and provides a QSFP-to-QSFP connection compliant with MSA-style QSFP interfaces. It is intended for short-reach, high-bandwidth links where a 10 m optical connection and QSFP formfactor are required.

Advantages

The cable provides a standardized QSFP-to-QSFP connection that supports high aggregate throughput suitable for 40G applications on a 10 m link. As an active optical cable it integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end to convert electrical signals to optical signals and back, reducing the need for separate transceivers and patching. The multimode fibre design minimizes signal loss over the 10 m distance and is compatible with common networking equipment that supports QSFP AOC connections.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP AOC by inserting the QSFP male connectors into compatible QSFP ports on networking equipment. Ensure both endpoints support QSFP AOC connections and the intended 40G link configuration. Verify port settings on switches, routers or host adapters and confirm firmware or driver compatibility where required. Avoid excessive bending of the cable; follow the minimum bend radius for multimode optical assemblies and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Before deployment, confirm equipment compatibility with QSFP active optical cables and the target 40G link mode. Handle connectors with care, keep end-faces clean, and store unused ends with protective caps. For mission-critical links, validate the connection with link tests and monitor link status after installation.
