## Summary description

Active Optical Cable (AOC) CBO QSFP-AOC-2M-CH-BO is a 2-meter InfiniBand QSFP+ to QSFP+ link designed for high-speed, short-reach connections between switches, servers and storage equipment. The cable features an integrated optical transceiver in a blue housing and supports low latency, electromagnetic immunity and reduced rack heat compared with copper alternatives. Suitable for data center interconnects and HPC clusters.

## Long description

The CBO InfiniBand Active Optical Cable QSFP-AOC-2M-CH-BO — QSFP+ to QSFP+, 2 m is a 2-meter active optical link designed for high-speed, short-reach connections in data centers and HPC environments. This Active Optical Cable (AOC) integrates an optical transceiver in a compact blue housing and provides a QSFP+ connector on each end for direct QSFP-to-QSFP connectivity. It is intended to replace copper twinax options where lower latency, immunity to electromagnetic interference and lower rack heat are priorities.
Advantages
The cable offers high data throughput and low latency suitable for InfiniBand networks while reducing susceptibility to electromagnetic interference common in dense installations. Its active optical design reduces power dissipation into racks compared with equivalent copper links and supports reliable short-range links between switches, servers and storage devices. The integrated transceivers simplify installation by providing a single, factory-terminated assembly without separate SFP/QSFP modules.
Suitable for
 Short-reach connections between QSFP+ ports on switches and routers
 Server-to-switch links in high-performance computing clusters
 Interconnects between storage arrays and host adapters
 Data center top-of-rack and spine-layer cabling
Key specifications
 Connector type: QSFP+ to QSFP+
 Cable type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with integrated transceivers
 Length: 2 meters
 Application: InfiniBand high-speed short-reach links
 Performance characteristics: low latency, high data throughput
 Environmental traits: immunity to electromagnetic interference, reduced heat dissipation compared with copper
How to use
Install the cable by inserting each QSFP+ connector into the corresponding QSFP+ port until the connector latches. Ensure ports are compatible with active optical QSFP+ links and that the system firmware or switch firmware supports QSFP+ AOC devices. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the specified bend radius for optical assemblies. Once connected, verify link status through the host or switch management interface to confirm the link is operating at the expected InfiniBand speed and lane configuration.
Usage recommendations
For optimal reliability, use the cable within recommended ambient temperature ranges and avoid repeated flexing near connector ends. Keep connectors clean and protect unused ends with dust caps. When replacing copper links with this active optical cable, verify power and firmware compatibility with your network equipment and consult equipment documentation for any required settings for QSFP+ AOC support.
