BlueOptics QSFP-40G-30M-RC-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 30m OSFP QSFP Male/Male

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-30M-RC-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 30 metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP male connectors on both ends and an OSFP-compatible form factor. Designed for high-speed data transmission in data centres and networking environments, this cable implements 40GBASE-SR4 signalling over multimode fibre and integrates transmit and receive optical assemblies in each connector to carry up to 40 Gbit/s across the 30 m distance.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC provides a compact, low-latency direct connection between QSFP-capable devices while eliminating the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. The integrated optical transceivers on both ends reduce interface complexity and help maintain signal integrity over multimode fibre. The cable conforms to common QSFP and OSFP MSA electrical and mechanical interfacing expectations, enabling straightforward deployment in hardware platforms that accept QSFP/OSFP-compatible 40G AOCs.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP-40G-30M-RC-BO by inserting each QSFP male connector into the corresponding QSFP or OSFP-compatible port on your networking device, ensuring proper orientation and a secure latch engagement. Verify that the host devices support 40G AOC modules and 40GBASE-SR4 signalling. After connection, confirm link status and run any required interface configuration or diagnostics on your switches, routers or servers to enable the link at the desired speed and protocol.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short-reach, high-bandwidth links within racks and between adjacent racks. Avoid tight bends or excessive tensile stress on the cable; follow standard multimode fibre handling procedures and maintain proper bend radius to preserve optical performance. Verify compatibility with your hardware vendor’s supported AOC list if vendor interoperability validation is required.
