BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-1M-CN-BO InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 1m mannelijk/mannelijk

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-1M-CN-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 1m Male/Male is a 1-metre active optical cable engineered for high-speed data transmission in dense networking and high-performance computing environments. With QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends, this cable provides a compact, low-latency link suitable for short-reach interconnects between switches, servers and storage systems. The design prioritises signal integrity and reliable performance for InfiniBand links over a 1 metre distance.

Advantages

This QSFP active optical cable delivers full bandwidth required by modern InfiniBand fabrics while reducing electromagnetic interference compared to copper solutions. The integrated optical transceivers and cable construction provide consistent throughput with minimal insertion loss and low power consumption for short-reach links. Its QSFP male-to-male configuration simplifies rack and chassis connectivity and helps maintain organized cable routing in data centre installations.

Suitable for

• Short-reach interconnects between InfiniBand switches
• Direct connections between servers and storage arrays in HPC clusters
• High-density patching inside server racks and top-of-rack switching
• Low-latency links for compute nodes in data centre deployments

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male on both ends
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 1 metre
• Application: InfiniBand high-speed data links
• Signal medium: Multi-channel optical transmission
• Typical use-case: Short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects

How to use

Ensure that both devices support QSFP AOC connections and are powered off or in a hot-pluggable state recommended by the equipment vendor. Align each QSFP connector with the corresponding port and insert firmly until the latch engages. For removal, release the latch and gently withdraw the connector. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the equipment manufacturer. No external transceivers or patch panels are required when using this direct QSFP-AOC-1M-CN-BO cable between compatible ports.

Recommendations

Use this 1m QSFP AOC for short-distance, high-bandwidth links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Avoid tight bends and exposure to crushing forces. Verify compatibility with your InfiniBand switch or host adapter firmware and follow vendor guidance for hot-plugging to ensure reliable operation.
