Cabo ótico ativo InfiniBand CBO QSFP-AOC-30M-LO-BO 30 m

The Active Optical InfiniBand Cable CBO QSFP-AOC-30M-LO-BO 30 m is an active optical cable with QSFP connectors designed for high-speed interconnects in data centers and high performance computing (HPC) environments. It provides a 30 meter fiber link between QSFP ports, combining low latency and high throughput for reliable rack-to-rack or chassis-to-chassis connections where optical signal integrity is required.

Advantages

This active optical cable delivers consistent signal quality over a 30 m distance while reducing electromagnetic interference compared to copper alternatives. The QSFP interface supports high-density port layouts and simplifies cabling management in dense racks. Built for environments that demand low latency and sustained data rates, the cable provides stable, long-reach connectivity with reduced power consumption at endpoints due to optical transmission efficiency.

Suitable for

• Rack-to-rack and chassis-to-chassis interconnects in data centers
• High performance computing clusters and InfiniBand networks
• Low-latency storage and compute node connections
• Environments requiring immunity to electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) optical
• Cable type: Active optical cable with integrated transceivers
• Length: 30 meters of optical fiber link
• Performance: Designed for low-latency, high-throughput data transmission
• Usage environment: Data center and HPC-grade interconnects
• Cabling density: Suitable for high-density QSFP port deployments

How to use

Install the cable by aligning and inserting the QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on each device until it clicks into place, observing the device vendor's port handling guidelines. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for optical fiber to preserve signal integrity. Verify link status on both connected devices; most systems will auto-negotiate and report link health once the optical connection is established.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid routing the cable near high-heat sources and maintain appropriate airflow within racks. Use cable management accessories to prevent stress on connectors and preserve the manufacturer’s recommended bend radius. Periodically inspect connectors for contamination and clean with approved fiber-optic cleaning tools when necessary to maintain low insertion loss and reliable links.
