BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-MV-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 7m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-MV-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 7 meter active optical cable engineered for high-speed, low-latency data transmission in data center and high-performance computing environments. Fitted with QSFP male connectors on both ends, this cable supports dense switch-to-switch, switch-to-server and module interconnects where reliable signal integrity and compact cabling are required. Its optical construction minimizes electromagnetic interference and enables sustained link performance over the full 7 m length.

Advantages

The cable provides a compact, plug-and-play alternative to traditional copper or transceiver-plus-patch-cord assemblies, reducing port space and cabling complexity. Active optical technology ensures consistent signal quality and thermal stability while allowing longer reach than direct-attach copper options. QSFP connectors on both ends deliver a secure mating interface compatible with QSFP ports used in InfiniBand and other high-speed network equipment.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between QSFP-enabled switches and routers
• Server-to-switch connections in rack and pod deployments
• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabrics
• Data center top-of-rack and spine-to-leaf cabling

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 7 meters
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Interface: InfiniBand-compatible high-speed interface
• Signal medium: Multimode optical link with integrated transceivers
• Typical applications: Short- to mid-reach data center interconnects

How to use

Install the cable by aligning each QSFP male connector with the corresponding QSFP port and gently inserting until the connector latches. Ensure both networking devices are powered and configured for the intended link speed and protocol before establishing traffic. Avoid tight bends and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors; maintain recommended bend radii for optical cables to preserve link quality. Routine visual inspection of connector endfaces and secure seating in ports helps maintain reliable operation.

Recommendations

Store and route the cable away from sources of mechanical stress and strong electromagnetic fields. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before installation if contamination is suspected. Use cable management to prevent excessive tension and ensure airflow in rack environments.
