BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-PT-BO InfiniBand optický kabel 7 m samec/samec

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-PT-BO InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 7m Male/Male is a 7-meter active optical cable engineered for high-speed short-reach connections in data center and networking environments. Equipped with QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends, this cable supports reliable InfiniBand links and is intended for equipment requiring compact, low-latency fibre connectivity. Its 7 m length is suited to inter-rack and intra-rack connections where electrical cabling may be impractical or where optical transmission reduces signal degradation and electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides consistent high-bandwidth throughput with lower power consumption compared to some long copper alternatives and removes the need for separate transceivers. The QSFP connector compatibility simplifies installation into QSFP-enabled ports, while the 7-meter reach offers flexibility for typical rack-to-rack and switch-to-switch layouts. Optical transmission minimizes susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and supports stable, low-latency data exchange suitable for InfiniBand fabrics.

Suitable for

• Short-reach InfiniBand connections in data centers
• Inter-rack and intra-rack networking between QSFP-enabled devices
• High-throughput computing clusters and storage arrays
• Environments where electromagnetic immunity and low latency are required

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP (male) on both ends
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 7 meters
• Application: InfiniBand short-reach links
• Typical characteristics: low latency, high bandwidth optical transmission

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on the devices to be linked, ensuring the latch engages securely. Verify port link status on both devices after connection. No separate transceivers or fibre patch panels are required for direct QSFP-to-QSFP connections. Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends; follow equipment vendor guidelines for cable routing and bend radius to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress, maintain the recommended minimum bend radius, and ensure connectors are clean prior to insertion. Use this cable in matched QSFP-enabled InfiniBand environments and consult device documentation for compatibility and firmware requirements before deployment.
