BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC15M-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 15 m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC15M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 15 m Male/Male is an active optical cable (AOC) engineered for short-reach, high-throughput interconnects. With QSFP-to-QSFP male connectors on both ends and a 15 metre multimode optical link, this cable supports 40G data rates using 40GBASE-SR4 signalling and is suitable for use in data centres, high-performance computing racks and other environments requiring low latency and high bandwidth between switches, servers and storage systems.

Advantages

The cable integrates transmitters and receivers in the QSFP housings to deliver a fully active optical link that reduces electromagnetic interference and insertion loss compared with copper alternatives. Compliance with QSFP/MSA form-factor signalling ensures broad interoperability with hardware platforms that support the corresponding 40G AOC interface. Its 15 m length provides extended reach within racks and between adjacent racks without the complexity of separate transceivers and patch fiber runs.

How to use

Install by inserting each QSFP male connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your networking device until the connector latches. Ensure devices are powered down or handle hot-plugging according to your equipment’s guidelines; many platforms support hot insertion of QSFP AOCs. After insertion, verify link status through device LEDs or management interfaces and confirm negotiated speed and link protocol (for example, Ethernet or InfiniBand) in the device network settings.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends in the multimode optical cable; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius. For interoperability, use in systems that support QSFP AOC modules and the 40GBASE-SR4 profile. Keep connectors capped when not in use and inspect ports for debris before connection to ensure reliable optical performance.
