InfiniBand aktívny optický kábel CBO QSFP-AOC-30M-DL-BO 30 m QSFP+ na QSFP+

InfiniBand Active Optical Cable CBO QSFP-AOC-30M-DL-BO 30 m QSFP+ to QSFP+ is a 30‑metre optical direct-attach solution with QSFP+ connectors on both ends. The cable integrates active optical electronics to convert and transmit data over multimode optical fiber, providing a single-cable alternative to separate transceivers and fibre patch cords. Designed for high-throughput, low-latency interconnects, this AOC suits rack-to-rack and equipment-to-equipment links in modern data centres where 30 m reach is required.

Advantages

The active optical construction reduces electrical signal degradation and electromagnetic interference compared with long copper assemblies, while eliminating the need for separate optical transceivers. A 30 m length offers extended reach for flexible placement of servers, switches and storage units without intermediate patching. QSFP+ connectors provide compatibility with InfiniBand and other QSFP+ capable ports, enabling straightforward installation and predictable performance for high-speed fabrics.

Suitable for

• Rack-to-rack connections in data centres requiring 30 m reach
• High-performance computing clusters using InfiniBand interconnects
• Interconnects between switches, servers and storage arrays with QSFP+ ports
• Environments where low latency and reliable optical links are essential

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP+ to QSFP+ (both ends)
• Length: 30 metres
• Media: active optical cable with integrated transceivers
• Supported interface: InfiniBand (QSFP+ physical form factor)
• Performance: designed for high-throughput, low-latency links suitable for data centre fabrics
• Compatibility: QSFP+ ports on switches, NICs and storage equipment

How to use

Install the 30 m QSFP+ to QSFP+ AOC by inserting each QSFP+ connector into the corresponding QSFP+ port on your devices until the latch engages. Ensure ports are powered down or follow hot‑plug guidelines specified by the equipment vendor if connecting live. Verify link status through the host or switch management interfaces and confirm negotiated speed and lane configuration. Route the cable to avoid tight bends; maintain the minimum bend radius indicated by the equipment manufacturer to preserve optical performance.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this AOC in environments where temperature and mechanical stress are within standard data centre operating ranges. Avoid kinking, crushing or excessive twisting of the cable. Confirm compatibility with your switch or host firmware and QSFP+ port licensing if applicable. Regularly inspect connectors for contamination and clean with appropriate fibre-optic cleaning tools before insertion.
