BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-1M-MR-BO InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 1 m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-1M-MR-BO is a 1-meter active optical cable with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed InfiniBand and fibre optic links. It provides a compact, low-latency connection for server, switch and storage interconnects in data centers and rack environments. The cable’s male-to-male QSFP form factor supports plug-and-play installation and is intended for short-reach optical links where high bandwidth and signal integrity are required.

Advantages

This active optical cable delivers high bandwidth with low latency and reduced electromagnetic interference compared to copper alternatives. Its 1 m length offers a neat, space-saving connection within racks and between adjacent equipment. The standardized QSFP connector ensures broad compatibility with devices that support QSFP interfaces and InfiniBand protocols. Built-in optical transceivers improve signal reliability and maintain consistent data rates over the specified short reach.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters using InfiniBand interconnects
• Switch-to-switch or switch-to-server connections in data center racks
• Storage area networks and SAN uplinks requiring short-reach optical links
• Low-latency networking environments and testing labs

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male on both ends
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 1 meter
• Supported protocols: InfiniBand and fibre optic data links
• Intended reach: Short-reach, rack-to-rack or within-rack connections
• Primary use: High-speed data transfer with low latency

How to use

Install the cable by aligning the QSFP connectors with the corresponding QSFP ports on your devices and gently inserting until the latch engages. Use the 1 m length for connections within the same rack or between adjacent racks to maintain optimal signal quality. No additional configuration is typically required beyond standard port enablement on connected devices; verify link status in the host or switch management interface after insertion. Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends to preserve optical performance.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress, maintain a minimum bend radius recommended for optical assemblies, and ensure ports are clean before insertion. Use this 1 m QSFP AOC for short-reach applications where high bandwidth and low latency are priorities; for longer distances, consider multimode or single-mode fiber solutions designed for extended reach.
