BlueOptics QSFP-40G-D-AOC-10M-CM-BO InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 10m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-D-AOC-10M-CM-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 10-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed short-range links in data centre and high-performance computing environments. The cable provides a plug-and-play alternative to separate transceivers and fibre patch cords, combining optical transceiver electronics and a fixed optical fibre assembly in a single, lightweight cable that supports 40 Gbps aggregated throughput and low latency interconnects between switches, routers and servers.

Advantages

This QSFP AOC delivers high bandwidth and energy efficiency in a compact assembly that reduces rack cabling complexity. The integrated design eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cables, simplifying installation and maintenance. The 10-metre length provides flexibility for typical data centre topologies while maintaining signal integrity and low electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives. Compatibility with QSFP ports ensures straightforward interoperability with hardware that supports QSFP interfaces.

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP plug into the corresponding QSFP port on your devices until the latch engages. Ensure ports are compatible with QSFP AOC modules and that devices are powered down or port activity is checked according to your organisation's hot-plug policy. The cable is plug-and-play in most environments; operating systems and network hardware that support QSFP links will recognise the connection and negotiate link speed automatically. Avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on the cable and secure excess slack to prevent movement during maintenance.

Recommendations

Use the BlueOptics 10 m QSFP AOC for intra-rack or short inter-rack connections where a reliable 40 Gbps optical link and reduced cabling complexity are priorities. Store and route the cable to prevent sharp bends, and verify QSFP port compatibility and firmware support on both ends to ensure full performance.
