BlueOptics MC2206310-015-BO cable InfiniBand/fibra óptica 15 m QSFP macho/macho

The BlueOptics MC2206310-015-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 15 m QSFP Male/Male is a 15-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP-to-QSFP connectors, engineered for 40G short-range applications. It integrates transmitter and receiver modules on both ends and uses multimode fiber to deliver high-speed optical links with immunity to electromagnetic interference. The cable is compatible with systems that support the same QSFP 40GBASE-SR4 interface and is intended for data center and networking environments that require reliable 40 Gbps connectivity over a 15 m reach.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC follows MSA standards for QSFP 40GBASE-SR4 connections and is manufactured using high-quality optical components. It provides simultaneous send/receive optical transmission, supports common 40G protocols such as Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet, and includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time parameters like voltage, laser bias, output and input power, and temperature when supported by the host hardware. The pre-assembled fiber design eliminates the need for patch cords and reduces potential attenuation or connector contamination.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect each QSFP plug into compatible QSFP ports on your networking devices, ensuring proper insertion and retention. Verify that the host devices support QSFP 40GBASE-SR4 AOC modules and, if required, enable or check DDM/DOM support in the device management interface to monitor link parameters. Avoid bending the cable beyond manufacturer-recommended radii and secure routing to prevent strain. No separate transceivers or patching of fiber connectors are required because the cable is pre-assembled and integrated.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use the cable within the specified 15 m reach in multimode fiber environments, maintain minimum bend radii when routing, and confirm DDM/DOM compatibility with host hardware before relying on diagnostic readings. Regularly inspect connectors for contamination before insertion and follow data center handling guidelines to preserve optical performance.
