Cabo de rede BlueOptics JL287A-BO QSFP InfiniBand 7 m laranja

The BlueOptics JL287A-BO QSFP InfiniBand 7 m Orange is a 7-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed InfiniBand and multimode fiber data transmission. This pre-assembled orange cable supports up to 40 Gbit/s over a 7 m link, integrates transmitter and receiver modules in each QSFP plug, and conforms to MSA QSFP AOC mechanical and electrical standards for interoperability with compatible networking equipment.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC provides a factory-assembled QSFP-to-QSFP connection that eliminates patching and reduces insertion loss associated with separate transceivers and fiber patch cords. Built to MSA specifications, the cable includes onboard optical transceivers and supports simultaneous send/receive operation via multimode fiber, offering low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The orange color improves identification in dense cabling environments, and manufacturing and component choices are aimed at extended operational lifetime and consistent performance.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links within data centers
• InfiniBand interconnects in HPC clusters and compute racks
• Storage area networks and SAN fabrics requiring 40 Gbit/s links
• Short-reach multimode fiber connections where QSFP interfaces are supported

• Connectors: QSFP to QSFP (male/male)
• Rated data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s
• Cable length: 7 m
• Fiber type: multimode (built-in multimode optical transceivers)
• Color: orange (high visibility)
• Typical weight: 0.25 kg

How to use

Install the BlueOptics JL287A-BO by inserting each QSFP connector into compatible QSFP ports on your switches, routers, storage arrays or compute nodes. Ensure the host hardware supports QSFP AOC modules and, if required, that firmware permits third-party AOCs. Handle connectors by the housing, avoid touching optical interfaces, and route the cable to prevent tight bends and mechanical strain. Power on the linked devices and verify link status through the device management interface; when supported, use Digital Diagnostics/DOM readings for monitoring transmitter/receiver parameters.

Recommendations

Use the cable in environments that match multimode fiber short-reach specifications and keep bend radius within manufacturer guidelines. Confirm compatibility and DDM/DOM support on your equipment if you need real-time optical diagnostics. For rack installations, label both ends and maintain organized cable paths to preserve optical performance and ease maintenance.
