Cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand BlueOptics AX42-BO 1 m QSFP Aqua

The BlueOptics AX42-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 1 m active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP connectors on both ends and an aqua jacket for easy identification. Designed for high-speed short-range links, this QSFP-to-QSFP cable follows MSA-compatible QSFP form-factor standards and supports multi-lane optical transmission suitable for 40 Gbps-class applications. The integrated transmitters and receivers at each end allow bi-directional optical signal transfer over multimode fiber without the need for separate transceivers or patching.

Advantages

This 1 m BlueOptics AOC provides a compact pre-assembled fibre solution that reduces installation time and avoids connector polishing or on-site splicing. Aqua color coding helps with cable management and rapid identification in dense rack environments. The cable includes active optical components to maintain signal integrity over the short-reach multimode link and is produced to industry MSA standards for physical and electrical compatibility with QSFP QSFP ports supporting similar 40GBASE-SR4 protocols.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AX42-BO by inserting each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port until it seats firmly; secure any port latches according to your hardware's instructions. The cable is pre-assembled and requires no field termination. Ensure host hardware supports QSFP AOC modules and the target transmission protocol (for example 40GBASE-SR4 or compatible InfiniBand QSFP links). Verify any required digital diagnostics or port settings in the switch/router firmware if monitoring is needed.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive compression; respect the manufacturer's minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. Use the aqua color to help maintain organized cable runs and label both ends if required for asset management. Confirm that connected devices support the AOC and any diagnostic features you intend to use.
