Glasvezel-QSFP-kabel CBO BlueOptics BO252503K20M AFBR-7QER20Z 20 m

The CBO BlueOptics BO252503K20M is a pre-terminated QSFP fiber optic cable engineered for short-reach, high-speed connections in data centers and network closets. This 20 m assembly provides a fixed-length optical link for QSFP ports, enabling straightforward interconnects between switches, direct attach to transceivers, and other equipment with QSFP interfaces. The cable is intended for environments that require a reliable, plug-and-play OM-type multimode fiber connection with consistent performance over a 20 metre span.

Advantages

This 20 m QSFP fiber cable delivers predictable optical performance and minimizes installation time because it comes factory-terminated and tested for compatibility with QSFP modules. The fixed-length design reduces the need for cable management of multiple splices or field terminations and helps maintain signal integrity across short data center links. The product supports straightforward insertion into compatible QSFP ports and is suited for repeated connect/disconnect cycles common in rack and switch maintenance.

Suitable for

• Switch-to-switch connections within a data center or wiring closet
• Direct attach to QSFP transceivers for short-reach links
• Inter-rack links where a 20 m multimode fiber run is required
• Temporary or permanent installations requiring plug-and-play fiber connectivity

Key specifications

• Cable type: pre-terminated QSFP multimode fiber assembly
• Length: 20 metres
• Connector interface: QSFP-compatible plugs on both ends
• Fiber class: OM-type multimode fiber suitable for short-reach applications
• Application: data center interconnects, switch links, transceiver connections

How to use

Verify that both devices support QSFP direct-attach connections and that the 20 m cable length suits the intended path. Handle the cable by the connector bodies, avoid tight bends and protect connector endfaces from contamination before insertion. Insert the QSFP plugs into the corresponding ports until they seat securely, observing any device-specific latch or release mechanisms. When removing the cable, use the connector release mechanism and pull straight to avoid stressing the fiber.

Recommendations

Store the cable in a dust-free environment when not in use and use protective caps on connectors to prevent contamination. Route the cable following standard bend radius guidelines for multimode fiber and secure it to avoid strain near connector ends. For reliable operation, inspect connector endfaces regularly and clean them with appropriate fiber cleaning tools if required.
