BlueOptics InfiniBand/sklenené vlákno kábel 1 m QSFP aqua farba konektor samec/konektor samec

The BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 1 m QSFP Aqua colour Male/Male is a 1 metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed short-reach links in data centres and networking racks. It supports 40GBASE-SR4-class transmission over multimode fibre and is supplied in an aqua-coloured jacket for easy identification. The cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end and follows MSA-compliant QSFP form-factor specifications to work with equipment that accepts QSFP 40G AOCs.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides high-bandwidth, low-latency connections suitable for demanding networking environments. Being an AOC with QSFP-to-QSFP interfaces, it eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords, reducing insertion loss and maintenance related to connector cleaning. The pre-assembled multimode optical link is not susceptible to electromagnetic interference, and the integrated diagnostic capabilities allow monitoring of key optical parameters when the host hardware supports DDM/DOM.

Suitable for

• 40 Gbit/s short-reach links between QSFP ports in switches and routers
• High-speed server-to-switch or switch-to-switch uplinks in data centres
• Storage and SAN interconnects requiring 40G optical connections
• Environments where a pre-terminated, low-maintenance fibre link is preferred

Key specifications

• Length: 1 metre
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Transmission class: 40GBASE-SR4 compatible AOC for multimode fibre
• Colour: aqua jacket for easy identification
• Form factor: QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) active optical cable
• Supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) when host hardware provides support

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your compatible networking equipment, ensuring the connector latch engages securely. Use the cable for short-reach 40 Gbit/s links according to the equipment vendor’s instructions; the integrated transceivers handle optical transmission and reception without separate modules. If available, enable or consult the host system’s diagnostic interface to view DDM/DOM parameters such as transmitted and received optical power and temperature for troubleshooting and monitoring.

Recommendations

Verify that the target hardware officially supports QSFP AOCs and DDM/DOM if you plan to use diagnostic features. Route the 1 m cable without sharp bends and avoid tight cable ties to preserve multimode fibre performance. For multi-vendor setups, confirm compatibility with the switch or router vendor’s supported AOC list before deployment.
