Cabo de fibra ótica InfiniBand BlueOptics XLAOCBL1-BO 1 m QSFP laranja

The BlueOptics XLAOCBL1-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 1 m QSFP Orange is a 1 metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP to QSFP male connectors designed for high-speed interconnects. It supports 40G-class multi‑mode optical transmission and is intended for short-reach links in data centres, storage systems and high‑performance networking equipment. The pre‑assembled fibre optic AOC integrates transceivers at both ends to send and receive optical signals without the need for separate patch cords.

Advantages

This 1 m QSFP AOC provides a plug‑and‑play optical connection that is immune to electromagnetic interference and avoids the additional insertion loss and cleaning requirements of patch‑cord assemblies. The cable follows common QSFP AOC MSA conventions for mechanical and electrical compatibility and includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real‑time readout of parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias, output and input power, and temperature when supported by host hardware. Components are selected for reliability and long service life suitable for continuous operation in networking environments.

Suitable for

• Short‑reach 40G links between QSFP ports in switches and routers
• Interconnects between storage arrays and host adapters supporting QSFP
• Top‑of‑rack and spine connections within data centres

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP to QSFP, male/male
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) using multi‑mode fibre
• Length: 1 metre
• Nominal data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s aggregate per cable (40G class)
• Digital diagnostics: DDM/DOM support (host dependent)
• Immunity: not affected by electromagnetic interference (optical link)

How to use

Install the BlueOptics XLAOCBL1-BO by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your devices until the latch engages. Verify that host devices recognise the AOC and, if required, access the digital diagnostics on supported equipment to confirm proper link parameters. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; the factory‑assembled design requires no additional fibre polishing or patching.

Recommendations

Ensure that both endpoints officially support QSFP AOC connections and that the host firmware or drivers allow DDM/DOM access if diagnostic monitoring is needed. Maintain bend radii within manufacturer guidelines and avoid exposure to compressive forces or liquids to preserve long‑term performance.
