Cavo ottico attivo InfiniBand CBO QSFP-AOC-10M-MT-BO 10 m QSFP-a-QSFP

BlueOptics Active Optical InfiniBand Cable CBO QSFP-AOC-10M-MT-BO is a 10 m QSFP-to-QSFP active optical cable engineered for high-speed interconnects between switches, servers and storage. The assembly employs optical fiber technology to deliver low-latency, EMI-resistant links suitable for data centers, high-performance computing clusters and rack-to-rack or chassis connections. This cable supports short to mid-range connections where bandwidth, signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference are required.

Advantages

The active optical design reduces electrical interference and heat compared with copper equivalents while enabling longer reach at high data rates. QSFP-to-QSFP connectors provide a compact, hot-pluggable interface for direct attachment between compatible ports. The cable’s fiber-based transmission maintains signal integrity over the 10 m length, minimizing latency and supporting stable, high-throughput links in dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters requiring low-latency interconnects
• Data center switch-to-switch or switch-to-server links
• Rack-to-rack and chassis-to-chassis connections within 10 m distance
• Environments where EMI resistance and thermal efficiency are important

Key specifications

• Connector type: QSFP (QSFP-to-QSFP active optical cable)
• Length: 10 meters
• Transmission medium: optical fiber with active transceivers integrated in the cable
• Typical use: InfiniBand high-speed interconnects for data centers and HPC
• Performance characteristics: low latency, high throughput, EMI resistance
• Form factor: compact QSFP modules at both ends, hot-pluggable

How to use

Insert each QSFP connector into compatible QSFP ports on the devices to be connected, ensuring the latch engages for a secure connection. Verify that the host devices recognize the active optical link and that port configurations match the intended InfiniBand or supported interconnect settings. For initial deployment, test link status and throughput with management tools or diagnostics provided by the switch or host to confirm optimal performance.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for optical fiber. Keep connectors clean and replace protective caps when not in use. Use this cable within controlled data center environments, avoiding exposure to excessive dust, moisture or mechanical stress to preserve signal integrity and service life.
