## Summary description

The BlueOptics XLAOCBL20-BO is a 20 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable featuring QSFP connectors. It provides high-speed data transfer with male/male connectors, ideal for data centers and high-performance computing environments.

## Long description

The BlueOptics XLAOCBL20-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 20 m QSFP is a 20‑metre active optical cable (AOC) with QSFP-to-QSFP male connectors, designed for high-speed links in data center and HPC environments. It supports 40G data rates over multi‑mode fiber using 40GBASE‑SR4 protocol and integrates transmitters and receivers in the cable ends for optical signal transfer. The cable is manufactured to MSA-compatible QSFP AOC standards for mechanical and electrical interoperability with network switches, routers and storage systems that accept QSFP AOCs.
Advantages
This BlueOptics AOC provides 40 Gbit/s optical transmission across a 20 m active multimode link while reducing the need for field-terminated fibers or patch-panel connections. Built to MSA QSFP AOC specifications, the cable includes digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) support for real‑time parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias, output/input optical power and temperature where host hardware provides access. Components are selected to meet industry quality and regulatory standards, enabling long operating life and reduced maintenance frequency.
Suitable for
40G uplinks and server-to-switch connections in data centers
High-performance computing cluster interconnects using InfiniBand or Ethernet
Storage system connections and switch-to-switch optical links
Short-reach optical backbone segments inside equipment rooms
Key specifications
Type: Active Optical Cable (AOC), QSFP to QSFP
Length: 20 metres
Data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s (40GBASE‑SR4 compatible)
Fiber: multimode, integrated optical transceivers at each end
Connectors: QSFP male on both ends (QSFP AOC form factor)
Diagnostic: Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support (if host provides access)
Compliance: MSA QSFP AOC mechanical/electrical specifications; meets common industrial standards such as CE and RoHS
How to use
Install the BlueOptics XLAOCBL20-BO by plugging the QSFP connectors directly into QSFP ports on compatible switches, routers or server adapters. Ensure both ends are fully seated and that the host equipment supports QSFP AOC modules and, if required, DDM/DOM monitoring. No field termination or patching of fiber is necessary; the pre-assembled AOC provides a factory-tested optical link. Verify link state and diagnostics via the host management interface after insertion.
Usage recommendations
Use this 20 m QSFP AOC for short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects inside equipment rooms and data centers. Confirm compatibility with your hardware vendor for QSFP AOC modules and enable DDM/DOM in the host if you need real-time optical diagnostics. Avoid tight bends and mechanical strain on the cable; follow standard handling procedures for multimode optical cables to maintain signal integrity and cable lifetime.
