BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-SS-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 15m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-SS-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 15m Male/Male is an active optical cable designed for high-bandwidth interconnects in data centre and high-performance computing environments. With QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends and a 15-metre length, this cable provides low-latency, high-speed links between switches, servers and storage systems while avoiding the signal loss and electromagnetic interference associated with copper cabling.

Advantages

This InfiniBand fibre optic cable delivers high data throughput and stable signal integrity over a longer distance compared with direct-attach copper options. The QSFP male-to-male connectors ensure a compact, standardized interface compatible with QSFP ports, while the active optical design reduces power consumption and heat generation relative to some legacy transceiver-plus-patch solutions. The cable’s length enables flexible rack-to-rack and row-to-row connections without intermediate transceivers or additional patching.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters and inter-node connections
• Data centre switch-to-switch or switch-to-server links
• Storage area network (SAN) uplinks and back-end connectivity
• Low-latency trading platforms and real-time data processing

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 15 m
• Application: InfiniBand high-speed interconnects
• Signal: Optical transmission for low latency and high bandwidth
• Suitable environments: Data centre and rack-mount deployments

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-SS-BO by inserting each QSFP connector into compatible QSFP ports on networking equipment until the connector latches. Ensure both link endpoints support InfiniBand and active optical cables; confirm port configurations and firmware are up to date before powering network devices. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile stress; secure as needed to maintain airflow and service access in the rack.

Recommendations

When deploying this 15 m active optical cable, avoid tight bend radii and exposure to mechanical strain; maintain ambient temperatures and airflow according to equipment guidelines. Verify compatibility with QSFP ports and InfiniBand link settings, and test the link after installation to confirm expected throughput and latency.
