BlueOptics 06206-BO InfiniBand kuituvalokaapeli 50 m QSFP oranssi

The BlueOptics 06206-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 50 m active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP to QSFP connectors, designed for high-speed interconnects in data centers and networking environments. It provides a pre-assembled multimode fiber link with male QSFP connectors on both ends and supports 40G-class short-range optical transmission protocols used in switches, routers and storage systems that accept QSFP AOC interfaces.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC is manufactured to MSA-compliant QSFP AOC specifications and is intended to deliver compatible electrical and mechanical interfacing with QSFP ports. The cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end to handle optical signalling over multimode fiber and includes digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) capability for real-time parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical transmit and receive power and temperature where supported by the host hardware. The pre-assembled design avoids patching and reduces insertion loss associated with discrete connectorized assemblies.

Suitable for

• 40G short-range links between QSFP-equipped switches and routers
• Interconnects for storage systems and server networking requiring QSFP AOC
• High-density data centre cabling where a 50 m multimode AOC is needed

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with multimode fiber
• Length: 50 m
• Connector type: QSFP to QSFP, male/male
• Supported data rates: up to 40 Gbit/s (short-range multimode applications)
• Monitoring: Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support (if host hardware supports the feature)
• Standards: QSFP AOC MSA-compliant design

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your equipment until it latches. Verify that the host devices support QSFP AOC modules and the required 40G transmission profile. If your hardware supports DDM/DOM, enable or check diagnostics through the device management interface to monitor optical parameters. Avoid sharp bends and maintain manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius during installation and rack routing to preserve optical performance.

Recommendations

Ensure compatibility by confirming that the network hardware officially supports QSFP AOCs and the 40G short-range profile in use. Use the cable in indoor, controlled data centre environments and follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling QSFP transceivers or ports.
