Cavo InfiniBand/fibra ottica Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC1M= 1 m

The Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC1M= is a 1 m active optical cable with QSFP connectors on both ends, designed for short-range high-speed links in data centers and high-performance computing environments. It supports 100G Ethernet and InfiniBand protocols, provides low latency and reliable data transmission, and is intended for use inside and between racks where compact, light-weight cabling and good airflow are required.

Advantages

Active optical construction makes the cable thinner and lighter than equivalent copper assemblies, simplifying cable routing and management. The 1 m length is suitable for short intra-rack or adjacent-rack connections. Using optical fibers improves system airflow in high-density racks and reduces electromagnetic interference compared with copper cabling.

Suitable for

• Short-distance connections inside server racks
• Connections between adjacent racks
• 100G Ethernet links
• InfiniBand high-performance computing links

How to use

Insert each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on switches, adapters or host channel adapters until the connector latches. Ensure ports are powered and configured for the required 100G or InfiniBand link speed. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive stress; adhere to equipment vendor guidelines for QSFP connectors and AOC handling to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m Cisco QSFP-100G-AOC1M= for short intra-rack or adjacent-rack 100G/InfiniBand connections where reduced cable diameter and improved airflow are important. Avoid tight bends, protect connector ends from contamination, and follow data center grounding and handling procedures.
