BlueOptics H-QSFP+AOC2M-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 2 m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics H-QSFP+AOC2M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 2 m Male/Male is a 2-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP to QSFP male connectors designed for high-speed short-reach connections in data centres and networking environments. The cable implements optical transceivers on both ends and uses multi-mode fibre to enable reliable data transfer up to 40 Gbit/s per link in supported systems. It follows MSA-compatible QSFP form-factor conventions and is intended for use with devices that accept QSFP AOC connections.

Advantages

The AOC design integrates transmitter and receiver modules, which eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords and reduces installation complexity. With a 2 m length and QSFP male-to-male connectors, the cable provides a compact, low-power option for high-density rack deployments while maintaining signal integrity for short-reach InfiniBand and Ethernet applications. Compliance with QSFP AOC mechanical and electrical conventions ensures broad interoperability with hardware that supports compatible QSFP AOC interfaces.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each QSFP male connector firmly into the corresponding QSFP port on the network device until the connector latch engages. Ensure both connected devices support QSFP AOC modules and the required protocol (InfiniBand or 40G Ethernet). Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; observe the minimum bend radius recommended by the equipment vendor. After connecting, verify link status through the devices' management interfaces and confirm data rates and link health.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short-distance high-speed links inside racks or between adjacent racks rather than for long-haul connections. Avoid repeated removal and insertion beyond normal maintenance cycles to preserve connector and transceiver life. Follow rack and cable-management best practices to prevent strain, kinking, and excessive bend radii. Verify device compatibility with QSFP AOC modules prior to deployment.
