Cabo de fibra ótica InfiniBand BlueOptics AA1404028-50M-BO 50 m QSFP ficha/ficha

The BlueOptics AA1404028-50M-BO is a 50-meter InfiniBand/fibre optic active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP male-to-male connectors designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers and high-performance computing environments. Compliant with MSA QSFP specifications and implemented as a 40GBASE-SR4 solution, this pre-assembled multimode optical cable integrates transceivers on both ends to support simultaneous transmit and receive channels. The cable is intended for direct QSFP-to-QSFP connections over 50 meters and supports common protocols used in modern networks.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable 40 Gbps line-rate connectivity over multimode fiber with built-in transmitters and receivers that reduce the need for separate transceiver modules. As an AOC, it eliminates patching and connector cleaning associated with patch-cord assemblies and reduces insertion loss. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support enables real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature when the host hardware supports this feature. Components follow MSA standards and use high-quality lasers and integrated circuits to achieve extended operational life and high availability.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between QSFP ports in switches and routers within a rack or between adjacent racks
• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabrics requiring 40 Gbps links
• Storage area networks (FCoE) and other low-latency storage interconnects
• Short-reach data center connections up to 50 meters on multimode fiber

Key specifications

• Form factor: QSFP male to QSFP male (pre-terminated AOC)
• Nominal length: 50 meters
• Data rate: up to 40 Gbps (40GBASE-SR4)
• Fiber type: multimode fiber with embedded transceivers
• Monitoring: Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support (host dependent)
• Transmission type: simultaneous transmit and receive via optical channels
• Use environment: designed for data center and high-performance networking

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AA1404028-50M-BO by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP ports on the devices to be connected. Ensure QSFP ports are powered down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the hardware vendor if required. Verify that the host devices support 40GBASE-SR4 or the intended protocol (Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet, InfiniBand) and that DDM/DOM monitoring is supported if diagnostics are required. Avoid excessive bending or tension on the cable and secure it within cable management systems to prevent strain at connector interfaces.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, confirm compatibility with the target hardware and firmware, maintain proper multimode fiber routing with minimum bend radius, and use the DDM/DOM diagnostic data where available to monitor link health. Store and handle the cable to protect the optical interfaces from dust and mechanical damage; avoid cleaning the integrated AOC connectors with patch-cord procedures intended for detachable transceivers.
