BlueOptics XLAOCBL30-BO InfiniBand/vláknový kábel 30 m QSFP

The BlueOptics XLAOCBL30-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 30 m QSFP is a 30-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP-to-QSFP connectors designed for high-speed InfiniBand and 40GBASE-SR4 compatible links. It uses multimode fiber with integrated transmitters and receivers at each end to enable simultaneous optical send and receive, providing a pre-assembled connection between compatible switches, routers, storage systems and other network devices that accept QSFP AOC interfaces.

Advantages

This cable supports up to 40 Gbit/s data rates over a 30 m multimode link and is built to MSA-compliant QSFP specifications to ensure interoperability with hardware that supports QSFP AOC modules. The active optical design eliminates the need for separate transceiver modules and patching, reduces electromagnetic interference, and provides a low-latency, high-bandwidth link. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) is supported for real-time monitoring of key optical parameters when the host hardware exposes that functionality.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch or switch-to-switch interconnects in data centres
• Storage area networks and SAN uplinks requiring 40 G connectivity
• Low-latency InfiniBand cluster connections and HPC environments
• Short-reach optical links within racks or between adjacent racks

Key specifications

• Length: 30 metres
• Connector type: QSFP to QSFP (male/male)
• Link type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with multimode fiber
• Rated data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s
• Supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring / Digital Optical Monitoring (DDM/DOM) where supported by host hardware
• Designed to meet MSA QSFP AOC mechanical and electrical interoperability

How to use

Install the BlueOptics XLAOCBL30-BO by inserting each QSFP connector into the QSFP ports of the devices to be connected, ensuring the connectors are fully seated and latched. Verify that the host devices support QSFP AOC modules and, if DDM/DOM monitoring is required, confirm that the hardware exposes diagnostic registers. No separate transceivers or fiber patching are required; handle the cable by the housing and avoid sharp bends to maintain optical performance.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain, keep connectors clean and protected when not in use, and confirm compatibility with the target hardware platform before deployment. Use the DDM/DOM data to monitor link health if supported by your equipment.
