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

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-UQ-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 15m Male/Male is a 15-metre active optical cable designed for high-speed InfiniBand interconnects. Equipped with QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends, this cable supports low-latency, high-throughput links suitable for server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections in data centres and high-performance computing environments. The male-to-male configuration ensures direct mating with standard QSFP ports without additional adapters.

Advantages

This 15 m active optical cable offers electrical isolation, predictable signal integrity over longer reaches than copper, and reduced electromagnetic interference. Its QSFP connectors provide a compact, standardized interface for InfiniBand systems, while the factory-terminated design eliminates on-site splicing and simplifies installation. The cable provides consistent, high-bandwidth transmission with minimal attenuation across the stated distance.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabrics
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links in data centres
• Latency-sensitive applications such as scientific computing and real-time analytics
• Network equipment racks where a 15 m optical reach is required

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Length: 15 metres
• Application: InfiniBand high-speed interconnects
• Characteristics: Low latency, high bandwidth, immunity to EMI

How to use

Connect each QSFP male end to the corresponding QSFP port on your devices, ensuring both ports are powered and configured for InfiniBand operation. Handle the fibre cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to preserve performance. After connecting, verify link status and data rates through your network management tools or device front-panel indicators.

Recommendations

Install the cable in a protected tray or rack route to prevent physical strain and avoid interference from power cables. For optimal performance, confirm compatibility with your QSFP ports and firmware, and perform link validation after installation. Replace or inspect the cable if connectors show signs of wear or if link quality degrades.
