## Summary description

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-3M-QL-BO is a 3-meter InfiniBand fibre optic cable with QSFP connectors on both ends. It is designed for high-speed data transfer, ensuring reliable connectivity in data centers and networking environments. The male/male configuration allows for easy connection between devices, making it an ideal choice for efficient data communication.

## Long description

The BlueOptics QSFP-AOC-3M-QL-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 3m Male/Male is a 3-metre active optical cable with QSFP form-factor connectors at both ends. It is intended for high-bandwidth, short-reach links in data center and networking racks, providing reliable, low-latency connectivity between switches, adapters and servers. The cable supports InfiniBand signaling over an optical link, combining the electrical QSFP interface with the benefits of fibre for reduced crosstalk and improved thermal performance.
Advantages
This male-to-male QSFP active optical cable delivers consistent high-speed data transfer with minimal signal degradation over a 3 m reach. The optical construction reduces electromagnetic interference and heat generation compared with direct-attach copper, while the QSFP connector ensures compatibility with systems that accept QSFP transceivers or QSFP ports. The compact, integrated cable assembly simplifies installation and eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords for short interconnects.
Suitable for
 Short-reach, high-bandwidth links in data center racks
 Interconnects between InfiniBand switches, host adapters and servers
 High-performance computing (HPC) clusters requiring low latency
 Network equipment setups where QSFP ports are available for direct connection
Key specifications
 Cable length: 3 metres
 Connector type: QSFP (male) on both ends
 Transmission medium: active optical cable (AOC)
 Link type: InfiniBand-compatible high-speed data link
 Use case: short-reach interconnect for data center environments
How to use
Insert each QSFP connector into the corresponding QSFP port on the devices to be connected, ensuring alignment of the connector latch and port. No separate SFP/QSFP transceivers or patch panels are required for a direct connection; the integrated AOC handles optical transmission internally. Verify device port compatibility and link negotiation settings on connected equipment, then confirm link status and performance through the host or switch management interface.
Usage recommendations
Route the cable with gentle bends and avoid sharp kinks; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for optical assemblies. Use the QSFP-AOC-3M-QL-BO in rack environments for short interconnects and avoid extended outdoor or harsh-environment exposure. Before deployment, confirm that connected devices support InfiniBand signaling over QSFP AOCs and update firmware if necessary to ensure compatibility.
