BlueOptics EX-QSFP-8LC-AOC1M-BO optický kabel InfiniBand 1 m samec/samec

The BlueOptics EX-QSFP-8LC-AOC1M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 1 m active optical cable with QSFP connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers and high-performance computing environments, this male-to-male AOC uses multimode optics and contains integrated transmitter and receiver modules in each QSFP connector to enable protocol-aware optical signalling. The cable supports QSFP-to-QSFP connectivity and is intended for short-reach connections such as linking switches, servers and storage appliances within the same equipment room.

Advantages

This QSFP-to-QSFP active optical cable provides high bandwidth over a short distance while keeping electrical interference and heat generation lower than equivalent copper solutions. The integrated optical transceivers simplify installation by eliminating the need to install separate modules, and the standardized QSFP form factor ensures compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP AOC connections. The 1 m length is suited for tidy rack layouts and reduces excess cable slack.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics EX-QSFP-8LC-AOC1M-BO by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your network device until it latches. Confirm that the host devices support QSFP AOC connections and the intended 40 Gbit/s protocol (for example Ethernet or Fibre Channel over Ethernet). No separate transceiver modules or patch cords are required; handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid bending the fibre section beyond its specified bend radius. After connection, verify link status through device LEDs or management interfaces.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m QSFP AOC for short interconnects inside racks or between adjacent racks and ensure both endpoints officially support QSFP AOC modules. Keep the cable away from sharp bends and sources of excessive heat. For deployments requiring longer reach or direct compatibility checks with specific hardware models, consult device vendor documentation or request a compatibility test sample before large-scale installation.
