BlueOptics CBL-0310-015-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 15 m QSFP

The BlueOptics CBL-0310-015-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 15 m QSFP is a 15-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP-to-QSFP male connectors designed for high-speed InfiniBand and 40GBASE-SR4-compatible links. The cable integrates a transmitter and receiver at each end and uses multimode fibre to deliver short-reach, low-latency connectivity appropriate for dense server, storage and switch interconnects in data centre and high-performance computing environments.

Advantages

This 15 m QSFP AOC provides predictable electrical and optical performance suitable for 40 Gbit/s applications over short distances. Male QSFP connectors on both ends simplify direct QSFP-to-QSFP connections without separate transceivers. The integrated transceiver components reduce system power and cooling requirements compared with equivalent copper or separate-module solutions, while multimode fibre supports established short-range transmission standards.

How to use

Connect one QSFP end to the QSFP port of the first device and the other QSFP end to the QSFP port of the second device. Ensure both devices support QSFP AOC connections and the intended 40 Gbit/s or InfiniBand link mode. Verify link speed and protocol settings on the connected network equipment and check interface LEDs or management software for link status. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; secure with appropriate cable management accessories to maintain proper bend radius and to prevent accidental disconnection.

Recommendations

Use the cable within recommended ambient temperature ranges specified by your equipment vendors, avoid repeated flexing near the connector boots, and follow rack and cable-management best practices to preserve optical performance. Test the link after installation to confirm expected throughput and latency for your InfiniBand or 40GBASE-SR4 application.
