Cabo de fibra ótica InfiniBand BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-RW-BO 7m macho/macho

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-RW-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 7m Male/Male is a 7-metre active optical cable engineered for high-speed data transmission in data centre and high-performance computing environments. It uses QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends to provide a compact, hot-pluggable interface compatible with QSFP ports on switches, routers and servers. The cable is intended to deliver low-latency, high-bandwidth links over a short to medium reach while minimising electromagnetic interference and heat dissipation compared with copper alternatives.

Advantages

This BlueOptics active optical cable provides high data throughput with low latency and stable signal integrity across the full 7 m length. The QSFP connectors on both ends ensure simple, hot-pluggable installation into standard QSFP ports without additional transceivers. As an optical solution, the cable reduces crosstalk and susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and allows for lighter, more flexible routing within racks and cable trays. The integrated design eliminates separate optics, simplifying inventory and replacement.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches to switches in data centre topologies
• Linking routers and aggregation equipment
• Server-to-switch connections in high-performance computing clusters
• High-bandwidth links in InfiniBand fabrics and clustered storage networks

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Length: 7 metres
• Application: InfiniBand high-speed interconnects and short- to medium-reach fibre links
• Benefits: Low latency, high bandwidth, immunity to electromagnetic interference
• Form factor: Compact QSFP plug-and-play design

How to use

Insert each QSFP connector into the respective QSFP ports on your networking equipment until the latch engages. Ensure devices are compatible with QSFP AOC connections and powered down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the equipment vendor if connecting live. Verify link status through the device management interface or LEDs. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it within cable management pathways to prevent stress on the connectors and maintain optimal optical performance.

Recommendations

Use the cable within standard data centre temperature and humidity ranges and avoid kinking or exceeding minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. For critical links, verify firmware and port settings on connected devices to ensure full bandwidth operation and monitor link health after installation.
