BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC7M-AT-BO InfiniBand kuituoptinen kaapeli 7 m uros/uros

The BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC7M-AT-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 7 m active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP to QSFP male connectors designed for high-speed short-reach data transmission. Compliant with QSFP MSA form factors and supporting 40GBASE-SR4-class links, this pre-assembled multi-mode fibre solution integrates transmitter and receiver electronics in each connector to deliver simultaneous send/receive operation. The cable is intended for use in data center environments, HPC clusters and storage networks where low latency and high throughput are required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics 7 m QSFP AOC provides a factory-terminated optical connection that reduces manual patching and potential insertion loss compared with discrete transceivers plus patch cords. The integrated design eliminates the need for field polishing or connector cleaning for the link itself and reduces susceptibility to electromagnetic interference common to copper alternatives. Digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) is supported to report supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit output power, receive input power and temperature for remote monitoring and troubleshooting. The product is manufactured to MSA guidelines and uses industry-standard componentry to offer long service life and consistent interoperability with hardware that supports QSFP 40G AOC modules.

Suitable for

• 40 Gbps uplinks between switches and aggregation devices in data centers
• Interconnects for high-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand fabric links
• Connections between storage arrays and SAN switches supporting Fibre Channel over Ethernet
• Short-reach links inside rack or between adjacent racks where multi-mode fibre is used

• Link length: 7 meters
• Data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s (40GBASE-SR4 compatible)
• Medium: multi-mode fibre with integrated transceivers
• Form factor: QSFP AOC, MSA compliant
• Monitoring: Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with SFF-8472
• Typical applications: Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet, InfiniBand

How to use

Install the cable by plugging each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on supported switches, routers or host adapters while the devices are powered according to the hardware vendor’s guidelines. Ensure the receiving hardware supports QSFP AOC modules and DDM/DOM if diagnostic features are required. No field termination is needed; handle the pre-assembled cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends or crushing. Verify link status through the connected devices and, if available, use the DDM information to confirm optical parameters and operating conditions.

Recommendations

Use this 7 m BlueOptics QSFP AOC for short-reach, high-bandwidth links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Maintain recommended bend radius for multi-mode fibre, verify compatibility with your hardware vendor’s QSFP AOC policy, and enable DDM monitoring where supported to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
