BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC7M-BO cable de fibra óptica InfiniBand 7 m macho/macho

The BlueOptics QSFP-H40G-AOC7M-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 7 m Male/Male is a 7-metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for 40 Gbps links in data center and networking environments. It implements a QSFP to QSFP connection using multimode fiber with integrated transmitter and receiver modules at each end, supporting short-reach high-speed interconnects between switches, routers, storage systems and other QSFP-capable equipment that follow MSA QSFP standards.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity over a 7 m distance while avoiding separate transceivers and external fiber patching. The integrated transceivers simplify installation and reduce component count. Compatibility with QSFP form-factor ports and adherence to MSA pinouts enable plug-and-play operation in many systems that accept QSFP AOC assemblies. The multimode optical link supports common protocols used in modern infrastructures, delivering reliable signal integrity for 40G applications.

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure both devices have QSFP ports that support QSFP AOC assemblies and are powered off or in accordance with the host’s hot-plug guidance. Align the male QSFP connector with the port and insert until the latch engages; follow the device manufacturer’s instructions for securing QSFP modules. After insertion, power the systems and verify link status through switch or host management interfaces. For removal, follow the reverse procedure, releasing the latch and gently extracting the cable while observing ESD and handling precautions for optical components.

Recommendations

Use in rack-to-rack or in-rack short-range connections where a 7 m QSFP AOC simplifies deployment. Avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on the cable, and keep connectors clean to maintain signal integrity. Confirm host compatibility with QSFP AOC devices and consult equipment vendor documentation if vendor-locked firmware restrictions are present.
