BlueOptics InfiniBand sklenené vlákno kábel 10 m QSFP oranžový 470-AAZM-BO

The BlueOptics InfiniBand fibre optic cable 10 m QSFP Orange 470-AAZM-BO is a 10-metre active multimode optical cable with QSFP-to-QSFP connectors designed for 40G data links in data center and high-performance computing environments. The cable implements the 40GBASE-SR4 transmission profile and supports simultaneous send/receive operation through QSFP interfaces. It is built as a factory-terminated active optical cable (AOC) to provide a pre-assembled optical link that reduces manual patching and eliminates the need for field-terminated fiber joints.

Advantages

The cable provides low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity for short-reach interconnects and is compatible with QSFP MSA-based ports. As an active optical cable it integrates transmitters and receivers on each end and avoids electromagnetic interference typical of copper connections. Digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) support enables real-time reporting of supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and temperature for easier remote troubleshooting. The factory assembly and MSA-compliant mechanical and electrical interfaces simplify installation and interoperability across supported hardware platforms.

Suitable for

• 40G Ethernet links within racks and between adjacent racks
• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters and InfiniBand fabrics
• Interconnections between switches, routers and storage systems
• Short-range data center uplinks and spine/leaf architectures

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 metres
• Connector type: QSFP to QSFP (male QSFP connectors)
• Data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s (40GBASE-SR4 profile)
• Optical type: active multimode fiber with integrated transceivers
• Color: orange (jacket)
• Digital Diagnostics: DDM/DOM support (MSA SFF-8472 compliant)
• Design: factory-terminated active optical cable (AOC), MSA-compliant QSFP interface

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port until it latches. Ensure both devices support the 40GBASE-SR4 / QSFP AOC interface and, if required, enable DDM/DOM support in the host system to access diagnostic data. Route the 10 m cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode AOCs. No field splicing or connector termination is necessary because the link is factory assembled.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short-reach, high-bandwidth connections inside data centres and rack environments. Verify hardware compatibility with the host device and confirm that firmware or driver settings do not block third-party AOCs if platform compatibility checks are enforced. Avoid exposing the cable to excessive heat or mechanical stress and keep connectors clean when inserting into ports.
