CBO InfiniBand aktívny optický kábel QSFP-AOC-30M-CO-BO 30 m

CBO InfiniBand Active Optical Cable QSFP-AOC-30M-CO-BO 30 m is an active optical link designed for high-speed interconnects in data center environments. The cable integrates QSFP connectors with built-in optical transceivers, providing a single-cable solution for connecting servers, switches and storage systems over a fixed 30-m fiber link. It supports InfiniBand-grade low latency and high bandwidth transmission while offering electrical isolation and reduced signal degradation compared with long copper links.

Advantages

This active optical cable eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords, simplifying installation and reducing component count in rack deployments. Fiber-based transmission lowers electromagnetic interference and ensures consistent signal integrity across the 30 m distance. The integrated QSFP form-factor guarantees compatibility with standard QSFP ports commonly used in modern switches and host adapters, and the AOC design reduces power consumption and heat compared with some discrete transceiver plus DAC solutions.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch connections in data center topologies
• Switch-to-switch uplinks requiring low latency and high throughput
• Storage cluster interconnects and SAN links
• High-performance computing (HPC) node interconnects

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP QSFP-compatible plug ends
• Length: 30 m fixed optical cable
• Transmission medium: active optical fiber
• Performance: designed for InfiniBand-class low latency and high bandwidth links
• Electrical characteristics: provides galvanic isolation between connected devices
• Form factor: QSFP integrated AOC with molded connectors for rack use

How to use

Install the AOC by inserting each QSFP connector into the QSFP port on your devices until the latch engages. Ensure both ends are seated in compatible QSFP ports that support active optical cable links. Power up the connected equipment and verify link status through device management interfaces or LEDs. No separate fiber patching or transceiver modules are required; the cable is ready for immediate use in supported QSFP ports. Handle the cable by the connector boots and avoid sharp bends; observe the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to maintain optical performance.

Recommendations

Use this 30 m active optical cable in controlled data center environments where fixed-length fiber links are preferred. Verify QSFP port compatibility and firmware support on switches and host adapters before deployment. Store and route the cable to avoid excessive bending and mechanical stress; follow ESD precautions when handling connector interfaces.
