BlueOptics QSFP-40G-D-AOC-10M-H-BO cabo InfiniBand/fibra ótica 10m macho/macho

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-D-AOC-10M-H-BO is a 10-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP male connectors on both ends, designed for short- to mid-range high-speed links in data centres and network equipment racks. Manufactured for use with 40G InfiniBand and compatible QSFP ports, this fibre optic cable provides a low-latency, low-power alternative to discrete transceivers plus patch fibre, offering consistent throughput for switched, server and storage interconnects.

Advantages

This active optical cable delivers 40 Gbit/s aggregate bandwidth with integrated optics and electrical-to-optical conversion, reducing connector count and simplifying installation compared with transceiver-plus-patch setups. The single-cable form factor helps minimise cable bulk in dense rack environments and reduces heat and power consumption relative to copper equivalents. Built for compatibility with QSFP ports, it offers stable signal integrity across the full 10 m span and is suitable for continuous operation in professional networking environments.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP male connector into matching QSFP ports on network switches, servers or storage devices while the equipment is powered down or following the manufacturer's hot-plug guidance. Ensure connectors are clean and free of debris before mating. After connection, verify link status and negotiated speed via device management interfaces. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and maintain proper cable routing to prevent stress on connectors.

Recommendations

Use this 10 m AOC in environments where a compact, low-power 40G connection is required between adjacent racks or within large chassis. Maintain recommended bend radius for optical cables, keep connectors covered when not in use, and verify vendor compatibility if devices enforce vendor locking or firmware checks.
