BlueOptics QSFP-40G-AOC-30M-BO InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 30m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-AOC-30M-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 30m Male/Male is a 30‑metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP to QSFP male connectors designed for high‑speed short‑reach links. The cable integrates optical transmitters and receivers at each end to support multi‑mode fibre transmission and complies with common QSFP/MSA signal and form‑factor requirements. It is intended for use in data centre and networking environments where 40G data rates, low latency and reliable link integrity are required over a 30 m distance.

Advantages

The AOC design eliminates the need for separate transceiver modules and patch cords, reducing connector count and simplifying cabling. The QSFP male/male connections provide native 40G connectivity with low power consumption compared with equivalent electrical cables over the same distance. Built for multi‑mode fibre, the cable supports protocols such as Ethernet and Fibre Channel over short‑range applications and delivers consistent signal quality and interference immunity typical of optical links.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on compatible switches, routers or network adapters while the devices are powered according to the vendor guidelines. Ensure ports are QSFP‑capable and configured for 40G operation if required. Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multi‑mode optical assemblies. After insertion, verify link status and negotiated speed via the device management interface and confirm proper operation with traffic tests if needed.

Recommendations

The cable is intended for short‑reach links inside racks or between adjacent racks; avoid use in outdoor or wet environments. To ensure compatibility, use with hardware that supports QSFP AOC modules and with firmware or platforms that accept compatible third‑party AOC assemblies. For installation, follow standard ESD precautions and manufacturer mounting guidelines to protect connectors and optical interfaces.
