Cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-NA-BO 7m maschio/maschio

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-7M-NA-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 7m Male/Male is a 7-metre active optical cable designed for high-speed, low-latency data links. Featuring QSFP form-factor connectors on both ends, this cable supports high-bandwidth interconnects commonly used in data centres and high-performance computing clusters. The assembly provides a compact, connectorised solution for short-reach optical links without the need for separate transceivers, enabling straightforward installation and predictable optical performance.

Advantages

This QSFP-AOC cable offers low power consumption compared with separate transceiver plus fibre solutions and reduces cable management complexity by integrating optics and connectors into a single assembly. With a 7 m length it allows flexible rack-to-rack or within-rack connections while maintaining signal integrity. The QSFP connectors on both ends ensure mechanical reliability and compatibility with QSFP ports used for InfiniBand and other high-speed interconnect standards.

Suitable for

• Data centre uplinks and switch-to-switch connections
• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters and server interconnects
• Storage area networks and backup systems requiring low-latency links
• Short-reach optical interconnects inside racks and between adjacent racks

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Length: 7 metres
• Application: InfiniBand high-speed interconnects
• Performance characteristics: Designed for low latency and high bandwidth transmission
• Deployment: Intended for short-reach optical links within data centre and HPC environments

How to use

Insert each QSFP connector into compatible QSFP ports on switches, servers or other network devices, ensuring the connector latch engages to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. Because the cable integrates the optical transceivers, no additional modules are required; devices should recognise the active optical connection automatically when compatible ports are used. Verify link status indicators on connected equipment after installation to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

Use this 7 m QSFP AOC for short-reach, high-bandwidth links where integrated optics simplify deployment. Avoid tight bends, excessive tensile load and exposure to liquids or dust; store and handle the cable by the connector bodies to prevent damage to the optical assembly.
