BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC1M-BO InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 1 m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC1M-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 1 m Male/Male is a 1-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for 40 Gbps links in data centers and high-performance computing environments. The cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules at each end to enable optical signal transfer over multimode fiber and is compatible with devices that support QSFP 40GBASE-SR4 interfaces. Its male-to-male QSFP configuration provides a direct, low-latency connection between switches, routers, and storage hardware.

Advantages

The BlueOptics AOC offers a compact, single-cable solution for short-reach 40 Gbps interconnects without the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. By combining optical transmitters and receivers within the cable ends, it reduces connector count and simplifies installation while maintaining signal integrity for high-speed Ethernet and InfiniBand applications. The 1 m length minimizes excess cable slack in dense rack environments and supports standardized QSFP connections for broad device compatibility.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your network devices until the connector latch engages. Ensure devices are powered down or that hot-swap procedures recommended by the device manufacturer are followed if inserting while powered. After connection, verify link status and speed through the device management interface or indicator LEDs. For troubleshooting, reseat the connectors and check device compatibility settings if the link does not come up.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short-reach interconnects within racks or adjacent rack rows. Avoid tight bends and maintain manufacturer recommended bend radius for multimode fibers. Keep the connectors free of dust and follow ESD precautions when handling QSFP modules and ports.
