Cable de fibra óptica InfiniBand BlueOptics 00YL664-BO 20 m QSFP naranja

The BlueOptics 00YL664-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 20 m active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP to QSFP male connectors designed for high-speed data transmission in data center and networking environments. It follows MSA-defined QSFP AOC specifications and supports multimode optical transmission for applications requiring up to 40 Gbit/s over a 20 metre connection. The pre-assembled orange cable provides a plug-and-play connection between compatible QSFP ports without the need for separate transceivers or fiber patching.

Advantages

The BlueOptics 00YL664-BO offers a tested, MSA-compliant QSFP to QSFP AOC solution engineered for interoperability with major hardware platforms that accept the original Lenovo 00YL664 form factor. As an active optical cable, it integrates transmitter and receiver electronics at each connector, enables low-latency optical transmission over multimode fibre, and avoids electromagnetic interference. The cable is manufactured from components meeting industrial quality standards and supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) when the host hardware exposes those functions.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between QSFP ports on switches and routers in data centres
• High-speed server-to-switch or switch-to-switch links up to 40 Gbit/s over 20 m
• Storage network connections and high-performance computing (HPC) InfiniBand use cases
• Environments where reduced latency and immunity to EMI are required

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with QSFP to QSFP male connectors
• Length: 20 metres
• Transmission medium: Multimode fibre
• Maximum per-link data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s (protocol dependent)
• Connector colour / jacket: orange multimode fibre AOC
• Supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) when supported by host hardware

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 00YL664-BO by plugging each QSFP male connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your network devices while the devices are powered according to your equipment vendor's guidelines. The AOC is pre-assembled and requires no additional transceivers or patching. Verify link status and, if available, read digital diagnostic parameters (voltage, temperature, transmit/receive power, bias current) through the host system to confirm proper operation. Ensure the connected devices support the QSFP AOC interface and the targeted 40 Gbit/s transmission mode.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connectors and avoid tight bends or excessive tension on the fibre assembly. Verify host compatibility with the 20 m QSFP AOC and enable DDM/DOM in the management interface if you require remote diagnostics. Store and route the orange multimode AOC separately from active electrical power and high-EMI sources to maintain signal integrity.
