CBO InfiniBand Cavo ottico attivo QSFP-AOC-10M-PT-BO — 10 m, QSFP+ su QSFP+

The CBO InfiniBand Active Optical Cable QSFP-AOC-10M-PT-BO is a 10 m QSFP+ to QSFP+ fiber interconnect engineered for short-range high-bandwidth links. This pre-terminated active optical assembly converts electrical signals to optical signals, enabling low-latency, high-throughput connections between servers, switches and storage systems in data centre environments. The cable design reduces electromagnetic interference and signal loss compared with copper alternatives while simplifying installation with QSFP+ form-factor direct plug-in ends.

Advantages

The active optical construction provides high data rates with controlled latency and improved signal integrity over the full 10 m length. Immunity to electromagnetic interference ensures stable performance in dense rack deployments and mixed-cable environments. The pre-terminated QSFP+ connectors eliminate the need for field termination and support hot-plug installation, reducing deployment time. The thin, lightweight optical assembly aids cable management and airflow within racks.

Suitable for

• High-performance server-to-switch links in data centres
• Switch-to-switch aggregation and spine-leaf fabric connections
• Storage array interconnects requiring low latency and high bandwidth
• Short-range fibre runs where EMI immunity is required

How to use

Install the QSFP-AOC-10M-PT-BO by inserting the QSFP+ connector ends into compatible QSFP+ ports on switches, servers or storage devices. Ensure ports are powered down or follow vendor hot-swap guidelines if connecting to live equipment. Check link status indicators on connected devices to confirm a successful link and verify negotiated data rates. Route the cable to minimize sharp bends and avoid mechanical strain; the thin AOC construction allows flexible routing through rack spaces and cable trays.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this active optical cable within its specified 10 m length and avoid exceeding manufacturer-recommended bend radii. Keep connector end caps on when the cable is not in use to protect optical interfaces from dust. Confirm QSFP+ port compatibility and firmware support on network equipment to ensure full performance and feature compatibility.
