BlueOptics NDCCGJ-C402-BO QSFP+ Active Optical Cable 40GBASE-SR4 15m Ethernet InfiniBand kompatibilný Avago

High-density data centers and high-performance computing clusters demand reliable, high-bandwidth interconnects that can span longer distances without signal degradation. The BlueOptics NDCCGJ-C402-BO QSFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC) solves this challenge by delivering a full 40 Gbps link over 15 meters of multimode fiber, eliminating the need for separate transceivers and fragile fiber patch cords. This AOC is a single, factory-terminated assembly that combines QSFP+ connectors with an integrated optical cable, ensuring consistent performance and simplifying deployment.

Who is it for

This cable is ideal for network engineers, data center managers, and system integrators who need to connect switches, routers, servers, and storage devices in top-of-rack or middle-of-row configurations. It is particularly suited for environments using 40GBASE-SR4 Ethernet or InfiniBand protocols, such as cloud computing, big data analytics, and high-frequency trading platforms. The 15-meter length provides flexibility for inter-rack connections without the bulk and attenuation issues of copper cables.

Main features

• 40 Gbps aggregate data rate via four parallel 10 Gbps channels, compliant with 40GBASE-SR4 and InfiniBand standards.
• QSFP+ to QSFP+ connectors with integrated active optical cable, no separate transceivers needed.
• 15-meter multimode fiber (MMF) with 850 nm VCSEL technology for reliable short-reach connectivity.
• Hot-pluggable design with digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM) for real-time link health monitoring.
• Low power consumption of less than 1.5 W, reducing energy costs in dense deployments.
• RoHS and MSA compliant, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of networking equipment.
• Compatible with Avago and other major brands, verified for seamless integration.

Tips

To maximize performance, ensure that both ends of the cable are connected to QSFP+ ports that support 40GBASE-SR4 or InfiniBand. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius (typically 30 mm) to prevent signal loss. For longer distances, consider using a longer AOC or a fiber patch cord with separate transceivers. Always verify compatibility with your specific equipment model before installation.
