BlueOptics OC40-QSFP-AOC-50M-C-BO InfiniBand optický kabel 50m QSFP samec/samec

The BlueOptics OC40-QSFP-AOC-50M-C-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 50-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP male connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed data transmission, the cable supports 40G applications over multi-mode fibre and incorporates integrated transmitter and receiver modules to maintain signal integrity across the 50 m link. It follows QSFP/MSA form-factor conventions for compatibility with equipment that accepts QSFP connections.

Advantages

This 50 m BlueOptics AOC delivers stable 40G connectivity with minimal signal loss thanks to its active optical design and integrated transceivers. The QSFP male-to-male configuration enables direct QSFP-to-QSFP connections without intermediate transceivers. The multi-mode fibre construction and active components provide a compact, lightweight alternative to comparable copper or discrete transceiver plus fibre assemblies, reducing rack congestion and simplifying installation.

Suitable for

• Data centre interconnects between QSFP ports
• High-speed server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links
• Storage area network (SAN) and Fibre Channel over Ethernet connections
• Network aggregation and spine-leaf architectures

Key specifications

• Length: 50 metres
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Link type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with integrated transmitter and receiver
• Fibre type: Multi-mode fibre
• Maximum aggregate data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s
• Form factor: QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) compliant

How to use

Insert each QSFP male connector into compatible QSFP ports on networking devices, ensuring ports are powered down or follow hot-plug guidelines recommended by the device manufacturer. Verify link status and speed through the host equipment management interface. Handle the cable by the connector housings when routing and avoid tight bends or sharp kinks; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multi-mode fibre. For interoperability, use the cable with devices that support QSFP connections and the relevant 40G protocols.

Recommendations

Confirm device compatibility with QSFP AOC modules and 40GBASE-SR4 or equivalent 40G optical standards before deployment. For best performance, route the cable to avoid mechanical stress and electromagnetic interference, and inspect connector end faces for cleanliness prior to insertion.
