Cable de fibra óptica InfiniBand BlueOptics 20 m QSFP macho/macho 740-060380-BO

The BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 20 m QSFP Male/Male 740-060380-BO is a 20 metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP-to-QSFP male connectors designed for high-speed multi-mode optical links. It supports 40G data rates over a pre-assembled duplex multi-lane optical connection suitable for short-reach links inside racks and between adjacent racks. The cable integrates optical transmitters and receivers on each end and is built to MSA-compatible QSFP form-factor guidelines to ensure interoperability with equipment that accepts QSFP AOCs.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC delivers low-latency, EMI-immune optical transmission and eliminates the need for field-terminated patch cords. The pre-terminated design reduces installation time and avoids attenuation or connection loss associated with separate patching. Built with industry-grade optical components and tested for compatibility, the cable provides consistent 40G connectivity and supports remote monitoring via standard digital diagnostics where supported by the host hardware.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections within data centre racks
• Short-reach storage network links using 40G protocols
• Environments requiring EMI-resistant optical links and low latency
• Setups that benefit from plug-and-play QSFP-to-QSFP AOC installation

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with QSFP male connectors on both ends
• Length: 20 metres
• Transmission: Multi-mode fibre optical link, QSFP to QSFP
• Data rate: Supports up to 40 Gbit/s aggregate per AOC over defined 20 m reach
• Form factor: QSFP MSA-compatible
• Diagnostics: Supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) when enabled by host hardware

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP AOC by inserting each QSFP male connector into the corresponding QSFP port on your network devices until the connector latches. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-plugging guidelines of the equipment manufacturer. Verify link status and interface settings in the host device; if the platform supports digital diagnostics, monitor parameters such as optical power and temperature through the device management interface. No additional patch cords or transceivers are needed for direct QSFP-to-QSFP connections.

Recommendations

Use this 20 m QSFP AOC for intra-rack or adjacent-rack 40G links and confirm host compatibility with QSFP AOCs and DDM/DOM support. Avoid sharp bends, mechanical stress, and exposure to fluids; route the cable to maintain minimum bend radius and allow airflow in equipment racks to preserve signal quality and product lifetime.
