BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-3M-NG-BO InfiniBand/optický kabel 3 m samec/samec

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-3M-NG-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 3m Male/Male is a 3-metre active optical cable designed for high-speed interconnects in data centre and networking environments. Equipped with QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends, this cable supports low-latency, high-bandwidth links between switches, servers and storage devices where copper cabling is impractical or where longer reach and reduced electromagnetic interference are required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP active optical cable provides reliable high-speed data transmission with reduced signal loss over its 3 m length. The QSFP male-to-male connectors offer a compact, hot-pluggable interface compatible with QSFP ports, enabling easy installation and replacement. As an optical solution, the cable delivers electrical isolation and immunity to electromagnetic interference while maintaining consistent performance for InfiniBand and fibre optic networking applications.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters using InfiniBand interconnects
• Inter-rack and intra-rack connections in data centres
• Connections between QSFP-enabled switches, NICs and storage arrays
• Environments requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth optical links

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Length: 3 metres
• Supported protocols: InfiniBand and fibre optic data transmission
• Form factor: QSFP (quad small form-factor pluggable)
• Application: Short-range high-bandwidth interconnects

How to use

Install the cable by aligning each QSFP male connector with the corresponding QSFP port on your devices and inserting until the connector latches. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-plug guidelines provided by the hardware vendor if replacing an active link. Verify link status via the host or switch management interface and check for proper lane mapping and speed negotiation. Use cable-routing practices to avoid sharp bends, excessive tension and mechanical stress on the connector ends.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer and avoid exposure to liquids or contaminants. Confirm compatibility with your hardware vendor’s supported QSFP AOC list and update device firmware or drivers if necessary to ensure proper link establishment over InfiniBand or fibre optic interfaces.
