Cable de fibra óptica InfiniBand BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-EE-BO 15m conector/conector

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-15M-EE-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 15m Male/Male is a 15-metre active optical cable designed for high-speed short-reach connectivity in data centers and high-performance computing environments. It uses QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends to provide low-latency, high-bandwidth links between switches, servers, storage systems and network devices that support InfiniBand interfaces. The cable construction and optical components are engineered to maintain signal integrity over a 15 m distance while minimizing power consumption and electromagnetic interference associated with copper alternatives.

Advantages

This active optical cable delivers high data throughput and low latency suitable for InfiniBand deployments, with a fixed 15 m length that simplifies cabling planning and reduces the need for additional transceivers. The QSFP male-to-male connection ensures plug-and-play compatibility with equipment supporting QSFP ports, while the optical medium provides immunity to electrical noise and allows reliable operation in dense rack configurations. The design focuses on consistent performance, secure mating, and compatibility with standard QSFP interfaces.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between InfiniBand switches and servers in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency links
• Storage area network (SAN) connectivity with QSFP-capable devices
• Short-reach cross-rack or within-rack connections up to 15 metres

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC)
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Standard: Compatible with InfiniBand QSFP interfaces
• Length: 15 metres
• Transmission medium: Optical fibre
• Typical use: Short-reach, high-bandwidth data links

How to use

Install the cable by aligning each QSFP connector with the corresponding QSFP port on your devices and inserting until it latches securely. Ensure both devices are powered down or follow hot-plug guidelines provided by the equipment manufacturer when connecting or disconnecting. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer to prevent signal degradation. Use appropriate cable management within racks to avoid strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Verify device compatibility with QSFP InfiniBand interfaces and confirm that firmware or driver support for active optical cables is present. Keep the cable away from sources of mechanical stress and avoid excessive bending. For optimal performance, use within the specified 15 m length and ensure ports are clean and free of debris prior to connection.
