BlueOptics QSFP-40G-AOC-1M-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 1 m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-AOC-1M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 1-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends. Designed for 40GBASE-SR4 and compatible InfiniBand deployments, this AOC integrates transmitter and receiver elements to enable high-speed optical data transfer over multimode fibre. The cable is intended for direct QSFP-to-QSFP connections in data centre and networking environments where short-reach, low-latency links are required.

Advantages

This QSFP-to-QSFP active optical cable offers support for data rates up to 40 Gbps and conforms to common MSA connector standards, providing plug-and-play compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP AOC modules. Its integrated optical transceivers reduce the need for separate SFP/QSFP transceivers and fibre patching, simplifying rack-to-rack or chassis-to-chassis connections. The 1 m length minimises signal loss and latency for short-reach interconnects in high-performance computing, storage and switch fabric applications.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP-40G-AOC-1M-BO by inserting the QSFP connector into the QSFP port of each device until the latch engages. Ensure both endpoints are powered and that the connected hardware supports QSFP AOC modules and the intended 40 Gbps protocols. No separate fibre patching or external transceivers are required; the integrated optical components handle transmission and reception. Verify link status via your switch or host interface to confirm the connection is active.

Recommendations

Use in short-reach, high-bandwidth internal connections within racks or between adjacent racks. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling; follow standard multimode fibre handling practices and maintain recommended bend radii. Confirm hardware compatibility with QSFP AOC modules and ensure firmware or driver support for 40G links when integrating into production environments.
