BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC20M-HW-BO InfiniBand optický kábel 20 m konektor-konektor

The BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC20M-HW-BO InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 20 m Male-Male is a 20-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for 40G multimode applications. It supports 40GBASE-SR4 transmission and integrates optical transmitters and receivers at each end to carry high-speed signals over multimode fiber. The cable is built to MSA QSFP specifications and is compatible with hardware that supports QSFP 40G AOC connections, making it suitable for data center and high-performance computing interconnects.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP AOC provides a plug-and-play QSFP-to-QSFP connection without the need for separate transceivers or patchcord cleaning, reducing installation time and the risk of attenuation from additional connectors. The integrated transceiver design supports simultaneous send and receive operations with low latency, and the multimode optical link is inherently immune to electromagnetic interference. The cable includes digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with SFF-8472, allowing real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and temperature when supported by host hardware.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 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-swap procedures recommended by your hardware vendor if connecting live systems. Verify link status and, if available, monitor DDM/DOM parameters via the host system for real-time diagnostics. No additional transceivers or fiber patching is required, but confirm that the connected hardware officially supports QSFP 40G AOC modules for full compatibility.

Recommendations

Use the cable within the specified 20 m reach and avoid tight bends or excessive mechanical stress. Confirm DDM/DOM support in host equipment before relying on diagnostic data. For optimal longevity, store and handle the cable according to standard fiber-optic best practices and ensure proper port latching during installation.
