CBO InfiniBand aktívny optický kábel QSFP-AOC-30M-BC-BO — 30 m, QSFP na QSFP

CBO InfiniBand Active Optical Cable QSFP-AOC-30M-BC-BO is a 30 m QSFP-to-QSFP active optical link designed for InfiniBand environments. The cable integrates optical transceivers in the connector housings, delivering a plug-and-play solution for high-speed, low-latency connections between switches, servers and storage arrays. Its 30 meter length suits mid-range data center runs where fiber-based QSFP connectivity is required without separate SFP/QSFP transceivers.

Advantages

The active optical construction eliminates the need for separate transceiver modules, reducing component count and simplifying installation. As an optical link, it offers immunity to electromagnetic interference and supports long-reach connectivity beyond typical copper QSFP cables. The integrated QSFP connectors provide consistent signal integrity for InfiniBand protocols, while the 30 m length balances distance and manageability in rack and row layouts.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting InfiniBand switches within data halls
• Linking compute nodes to storage in HPC clusters
• Mid-distance QSFP connections in enterprise racks and rows
• Applications requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth optical links

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP to QSFP
• Length: 30 metres
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Supported protocol: InfiniBand (compatible with QSFP InfiniBand ports)
• Transmission medium: multimode/mode-agnostic optical fiber with integrated transceivers
• Latency: low-latency optical transmission suitable for HPC and low-jitter networking
• Immunity to EMI: optical insulation provides protection from electromagnetic interference

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your switches, servers or storage devices until the latch engages. No separate transceiver installation is required; the cable is ready for use once both ends are seated and the devices recognize the optical link. Check device port LEDs or management interfaces to confirm link status and speed. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and stress on the connectors; follow standard data center cable management practices to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this 30 m QSFP AOC in indoor data center environments with controlled temperature and humidity. Avoid running the cable near high-heat sources and ensure bend radius limits are respected. Verify compatibility with your InfiniBand switches and host adapters by confirming QSFP port support for active optical cables and the required InfiniBand speeds.
