Cabo de fibra ótica InfiniBand BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-PS-BO 15m macho/macho

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-PS-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 15-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed links in data centre and networking environments, this pre-assembled multimode AOC provides a QSFP-to-QSFP connection that supports 40 Gbit/s class transmission protocols and is compatible with hardware platforms that accept QSFP AOC modules. The integrated transceivers on each end convert electrical signals to optical and back, enabling simultaneous transmit and receive operations over a single cable without the need for separate patch cords.

Advantages

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-PS-BO offers a factory-assembled fibre solution that reduces installation steps and potential connector loss compared with patchcord-based links. Compliance with QSFP AOC MSA electrical, mechanical and functional definitions ensures interoperability with equipment that supports QSFP AOC modules. The cable’s active optical design includes built-in transmitters and receivers, enabling high data rates with reduced electromagnetic interference sensitivity and lower latency compared with copper alternatives.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches and routers within server racks and across adjacent racks
• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabric connections
• Server-to-storage and top-of-rack to aggregation layer links requiring 40G-class bandwidth
• Environments where reduced EMI susceptibility and compact QSFP-to-QSFP cabling is required

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends
• Length: 15 metres
• Transmission class: 40G-class optical data transmission over multimode fibre
• Connector interface: QSFP-to-QSFP
• Built-in optical transceivers: transmitter and receiver modules in each connector housing
• Digital diagnostics support: supports SFF-8472–style digital monitoring when host hardware provides DDM/DOM support

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-PS-BO by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your network devices while following device vendor hot-plug guidelines. Ensure both devices support QSFP AOCs and, if required, enable or verify DDM/DOM support in the host system to access diagnostic parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, output power, received power and temperature. Route the pre-assembled cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; the cable requires no splicing or field termination.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with the target hardware platform before deployment and, where possible, test a sample AOC in the intended environment. Avoid sharp bends, compressive forces and exposure to sources of mechanical damage; store and handle the cable according to standard fibre-optic best practices to preserve optical performance and product lifetime.
