BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-3M-MR-BO Καλώδιο Οπτικής Ίνας InfiniBand 3m Βύσμα/Βύσμα

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-3M-MR-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 3-meter active optical cable with QSFP male-to-male connectors designed for high-bandwidth, short-reach interconnects. It supports InfiniBand networking environments and offers a compact, low-latency connection for linking switches, servers, and storage systems in data centers and high-performance computing setups. The cable assembly integrates optical transceivers within the QSFP housings to deliver stable signal integrity and simplified deployment without separate transceiver modules.

Advantages

This QSFP active optical cable provides high throughput with minimal signal loss over a 3 m length while reducing electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives. The pre-terminated, integrated design streamlines installation and reduces rack space consumption. Durable connector housings and fiber construction support reliable long-term operation in dense networking racks and controlled data center environments.

Suitable for

• Switch-to-switch high-speed links in data centres
• Server interconnects for high-performance computing (HPC)
• Storage area network (SAN) connections requiring low latency
• Network equipment patching in confined rack spaces

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Length: 3 meters
• Protocol support: InfiniBand
• Use case: Short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects
• Signal: Optical fiber (integrated transceivers)

How to use

Align the QSFP plugs with the QSFP ports on your networking equipment and insert firmly until the connector latch engages. Ensure both endpoints support QSFP AOC connections and InfiniBand protocol. Verify link status through your switch or host interface management after insertion. For removal, disengage the latch and pull straight out to avoid bending the cable at the connector junction. No separate transceivers or additional fiber termination are required.

Recommendations

Install the cable in a controlled data centre environment, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force, and maintain minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. Use proper port handling and ESD precautions when connecting to active equipment. For best performance, route the cable to minimize stress and avoid close proximity to sources of mechanical wear.
