BlueOptics QSFP-40G-7M-RC-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 7m OSFP QSFP stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-7M-RC-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 7-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP-to-QSFP male connectors supporting 40GBASE-SR4 applications. Designed for short-range, high-bandwidth links, this multi-mode fibre cable integrates a transmitter and receiver on each end to carry optical signals reliably between compatible networking devices and OSFP/QSFP ports in data centre and enterprise environments.

Advantages

This AOC delivers 40 Gbps aggregate bandwidth over 7 meters with low latency and reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives. The factory-integrated transceivers and multimode fibre simplify installation by eliminating separate SFP/QSFP transceivers, and the standardized QSFP form factor ensures compatibility with devices that support 40GBASE-SR4 or QSFP interconnects. Passive handling and plug-and-play operation reduce setup time while maintaining signal integrity for short-reach links.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect each QSFP male end into the corresponding QSFP or OSFP-compatible port on your switches, routers, servers or storage appliances. Ensure the host ports support 40GBASE-SR4 or compatible QSFP AOC modules before installation. No separate transceivers or fibre patching is required; once seated, the cable is recognized by compatible hardware and negotiates link parameters automatically. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling during installation to preserve multimode fibre performance.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short-reach, high-bandwidth connections within racks or between adjacent racks. Verify device compatibility with QSFP AOC modules and confirm firmware or driver support for 40G links. Handle the connectors by their housing, keep dust caps in place when not connected, and maintain minimum bend radii to ensure long-term signal reliability.
