BlueOptics QSFP-100G-AOC-7M-BO Cable InfiniBand/fibra óptica 7m QSFP28 Macho/Macho

The BlueOptics QSFP-100G-AOC-7M-BO is a 7-meter active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP28 male connectors on both ends designed for 100G data transmission over multimode fiber. Compliant with QSFP28 MSA form-factor and supporting 100GBASE-SR4 signaling, this cable integrates optical transmitters and receivers in each connector to deliver low-latency, high-bandwidth links between switches, servers and storage in data centers and high-performance computing environments.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC provides a factory-terminated, plug-and-play connection that eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fiber patching, simplifying installation and reducing potential points of failure. The integrated optics and multimode fiber design support short-reach 100G applications with predictable performance and minimal signal loss across the 7 m length. Compatibility with common hardware platforms that support QSFP-100G AOCs ensures straightforward integration into existing network infrastructures.

How to use

Install the cable by plugging the QSFP28 connectors into QSFP28 ports on compatible equipment. Ensure both ports are power-enabled and configured for the expected 100G protocol (for example 100GBASE-SR4 or vendor-specific settings). No external transceivers or additional fiber patching is required; the cable carries both transmit and receive optics internally. Verify link status and correct lane mapping in your switch or host interfaces after connection.

Recommendations

Confirm hardware compatibility and supported AOC modules in the device documentation before deployment. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling on the cable; follow minimum bend radius guidelines for multimode AOC assemblies. For critical links, perform link tests and monitor error counters after installation to ensure expected signal quality and throughput.
