AOC-kaapeli BlueOptics AOC-Q-Q-40G-30M-CT-BO 30 m QSFP-liitin/liitin

The BlueOptics AOC-Q-Q-40G-30M-CT-BO is a 30 meter active optical cable with QSFP male connectors on both ends, designed for 40GBASE-SR4 high-speed links over multimode fiber. The cable integrates transmitters and receivers in the QSFP assemblies and supports simultaneous send/receive optical transmission. It is intended for use in data centers and high-performance computing environments where low latency and high throughput are required. The product implements industry MSA-compliant interfaces and includes digital diagnostics monitoring functions where supported by host hardware.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides 40 Gbit/s data rates over a 30 m multimode fiber span while eliminating the need for separate transceivers and patchcord terminations. The QSFP-to-QSFP form factor simplifies direct device interconnects and reduces electromagnetic interference risk compared with copper solutions. Built to industry component standards, the cable offers integrated Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output and received power, and temperature when the host supports these features.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP AOC by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your network devices while the devices are powered according to vendor guidelines. Verify that the host hardware supports QSFP-based AOCs and, if required, enable or verify DDM/DOM access through the device management interface to read real-time diagnostics. Use vendor-recommended handling practices for QSFP modules: align the connector, press until it latches, and avoid excessive bending of the cable within the specified minimum bend radius.

Recommendations

Confirm compatibility with your switch, router or storage platform prior to deployment and ensure the receiving equipment supports 40GBASE-SR4 over multimode fiber and QSFP AOC connections. Maintain cable routing that avoids sharp bends and mechanical strain, and check host diagnostics for link status and optical parameters during commissioning and troubleshooting.
