BlueOptics AOC-Q-Q-40G-1M-CT-BO InfiniBand optický kábel 1 m QSFP konektor samec/konektor samec

The BlueOptics AOC-Q-Q-40G-1M-CT-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 1m QSFP Male/Male is an active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed short-reach links in data centers and networking equipment. With a 1 meter length and support for 40G transmission per the 40GBASE-SR4 profile, this multi-mode fibre assembly integrates transceivers at each end to convert electrical signals into optical signals and back, enabling low-latency, high-bandwidth connections between compatible QSFP ports.

Advantages

This 1 m AOC provides plug-and-play connectivity without separate transceiver modules, reducing space and power compared with discrete optics and patch cords. The integrated transceiver design ensures signal integrity for short-reach 40G links, while QSFP-to-QSFP connectivity simplifies rack and top-of-rack interconnects. Its construction minimizes electromagnetic interference and is suitable for dense cabling environments where stable, high-throughput links are required.

Suitable for

• 40G interconnection between switches and routers with QSFP ports
• Short-reach server-to-switch links in data centers
• High-bandwidth storage and compute cluster connections
• Environments requiring low-latency InfiniBand or Ethernet 40G links

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with integrated transceivers
• Length: 1 meter
• Transmission rate: up to 40 Gbit/s (40GBASE-SR4 compatible)
• Fibre: multi-mode fibre for short-reach applications
• Typical use: short-range data center interconnects with QSFP ports

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AOC by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on networking equipment, ensuring the connector latches are engaged. No separate transceiver modules or additional configuration are required on most systems that support QSFP 40G links; the cable is recognized as an integrated 40G optical link. Verify compatibility with your switch or server vendor documentation before deployment and inspect connectors for cleanliness prior to insertion to prevent signal degradation.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m AOC for short, high-bandwidth links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Maintain clean connector endfaces, avoid excessive bending radii, and route the cable to minimize mechanical stress. Confirm hardware compatibility with QSFP 40G ports and supported link profiles for reliable operation.
