BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-1M-VA-BO InfiniBand kuituoptinen kaapeli 1 m uros/uros

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-1M-VA-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 1m Male/Male is a 1 metre active optical cable with QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends. Engineered for short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects in data centers and high-performance computing environments, this cable supports reliable, low-latency data transmission while eliminating the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. Its compact, fixed-length design simplifies rack-to-rack and switch-to-switch connections where QSFP ports are available.

Advantages

This QSFP active optical cable delivers consistent signal integrity with reduced electromagnetic interference compared to copper alternatives. The integrated optics lower power consumption by removing discrete transceivers and simplify inventory management through a single, pre-terminated unit. With a one-metre length and male-to-male QSFP interfaces, the cable provides straightforward installation and predictable performance in short-distance, high-throughput scenarios.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency links
• Data centre top-of-rack and spine connections
• Switch-to-switch and switch-to-server links with QSFP ports
• InfiniBand fabric interconnects and storage networking

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Length: 1 metre
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Application: Short-reach, high-bandwidth data interconnects
• Compatibility: Devices with QSFP ports supporting InfiniBand protocols
• Latency: Low-latency design suitable for time-sensitive traffic

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port until the latch engages. Ensure both ends are seated firmly and that connected devices are powered and configured to recognise InfiniBand links. Because the cable is pre-terminated and active, no additional transceivers or patch panels are required. For best results, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive strain on the connectors or cable body.

Recommendations

Verify device compatibility with QSFP AOC solutions and confirm supported InfiniBand speeds before deployment. Maintain bend radius specifications and avoid repeated plugging cycles to prolong service life. For rack installations, use appropriate cable management to prevent connector strain and to keep airflow unobstructed.
