## Summary description

CBO QSFP-AOC-5M-BC-BO is a 5-meter InfiniBand active optical cable with QSFP(QSFP+) connectors for high-speed data connections between networking and storage equipment. As an AOC, it provides optical signal transmission over a fixed 5 m length, enabling low-latency, high-bandwidth links in data centers, HPC clusters, and server interconnects while eliminating separate transceivers.

## Long description

CBO InfiniBand Active Optical Cable QSFP-AOC-5M-BC-BO, QSFP+ to QSFP+, 5 m is a factory-terminated active optical link designed for direct high-speed connections between QSFP-capable ports. The cable integrates optical transceivers and a fixed 5 metre multimode optical assembly to deliver low-latency, high-bandwidth links without separate plug-in modules. It is intended for use in data centres, high performance computing clusters and server or storage interconnects where short-reach, reliable optical connectivity is required.
Advantages
The active optical design reduces electrical signal degradation and electromagnetic interference while supporting high data rates over a 5 m distance. By combining connectors and optical electronics in a single assembly, the cable simplifies installation and inventory compared with discrete transceivers and patch fibres. The QSFP+ to QSFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers, servers and host adapters that accept QSFP family ports.
Suitable for
 Short-reach interconnects between switches and top-of-rack switches
 Server-to-switch and server-to-storage links in data centres
 High performance computing cluster node connections
 Environments requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth InfiniBand links
Key specifications
 Connector type: QSFP (QSFP+ compatible) on both ends
 Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC) with integrated transceivers
 Length: 5 metres
 Transmission medium: Optical (multimode fibres integrated)
 Application: Short-reach high-bandwidth links for networking and storage
 Latency: Low-latency design suitable for InfiniBand environments
How to use
Install the cable by inserting each QSFP connector into the intended QSFP-capable ports until the retention latch engages. Ensure both ends are seated firmly and that the connected devices are powered and configured for the desired InfiniBand link speed. No separate transceiver modules or patch fibres are required; the active optical electronics inside the cable handle signal conversion. For hot-pluggable systems, insert or remove the cable according to the host equipment vendor’s hot-swap guidelines to avoid link disruption.
Usage recommendations
Route and secure the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive strain; maintain the manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius. Use the cable within data centre ambient conditions and within the supported distance of 5 m. Verify port compatibility and firmware support on both ends to ensure correct link negotiation and performance.
