BlueOptics QSFP-40G-20M-RC-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 20m OSFP QSFP stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-20M-RC-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 20 metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP-to-QSFP male connectors and an OSFP-compatible end. Engineered for multi-mode fibre transmission, this cable supports high-speed data links up to 40 Gbps over a 20 m reach and follows MSA-compatible QSFP form-factor conventions. It integrates optical transmitter and receiver components at each end to deliver a complete plug-and-play connection for data centre and networking equipment that accept QSFP interfaces.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC provides low-latency, high-bandwidth links suitable for short-reach interconnects within racks or between adjacent cabinets. Because the transceivers are integrated into the cable ends, installation is simplified and compatibility with QSFP ports is maintained without separate SFP or transceiver modules. The multi-mode fibre design and AOC construction reduce electro-magnetic interference and offer consistent signal quality for Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet or SDH/SONET protocols up to 40 Gbps across the 20 metre length.

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure both network devices have compatible QSFP ports that accept AOC modules and that vendor compatibility is supported by your hardware. With devices powered down or following hot-plug guidance from the device vendor, insert each QSFP male connector into the corresponding QSFP port until it latches. Verify link status through the device management interface and confirm the expected data rate and protocol negotiation. No separate transceivers are required; the cable contains the active optical components needed for transmission.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Use this 20 m AOC for intra-rack or adjacent-rack connections where a reliable 40G short-reach link is needed. Confirm device compatibility lists for Raisecom or other vendor platforms if strict vendor support is required.
