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

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-1M-PS-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 1 metre active optical cable with QSFP male connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed data transmission in data centre and networking environments, this cable supports QSFP-to-QSFP connections and is suitable for short-reach multimode optical links where compact, low-latency connectivity is required. The pre-assembled design eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords, providing a direct optical link between compatible QSFP ports.

Advantages

This Active Optical Cable (AOC) offers a plug-and-play QSFP-to-QSFP connection with integrated transmitter and receiver elements on each end, reducing rack space and cabling complexity in densely populated equipment racks. As a 1 metre cable, it is suited to short interconnects inside racks or between adjacent racks, delivering a reliable optical connection without susceptibility to electromagnetic interference. The cable is manufactured to industry MSA guidelines and is intended to maintain compatibility with hardware platforms that support QSFP AOC modules.

Suitable for

• High-density top-of-rack and middle-of-row switch interconnects
• Short-reach InfiniBand links and 40G optical connections
• Storage systems and servers with QSFP ports requiring direct optical links

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC), multimode fibre transmission
• Length: 1 metre
• Designed for: short-reach high-speed optical links (QSFP-to-QSFP)

How to use

Insert each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on network switches, storage systems, or servers while the devices are powered according to manufacturer guidelines. The cable contains integrated optical transceivers, so no separate module installation is required. Verify that the host hardware supports QSFP AOC modules and any required firmware or software settings for the intended protocol (for example Ethernet or InfiniBand) before deployment.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; maintain bend radii recommended for multimode fibre and secure the cable to prevent stress on the QSFP connectors. Confirm compatibility with the target hardware and enable any platform diagnostics (DDM/DOM) if supported to monitor optical parameters during operation.
