BlueOptics 10G-SFP-TWX-0501-BL InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 5 m SFP+ stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics 10G-SFP-TWX-0501-BL InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 5 m SFP+ Male/Male link designed for high-speed data transmission in demanding network environments. This fibre cable supports InfiniBand connectivity with SFP+ form-factor connectors and is intended for use where low-latency, high-throughput links are required between switches, servers and storage systems. The 5 metre length balances reach and manageability in rack and cabinet installations.

Advantages

This SFP+ fibre cable offers stable 10 Gbps class performance with low signal loss, physical flexibility for routing in dense cabling spaces, and compatibility with equipment that accepts SFP+ InfiniBand transceivers. The male-to-male SFP+ terminations permit direct module-to-module connections, reducing the need for additional adapters. The cable’s construction is aimed at maintaining consistent optical performance over its length and minimizing interference common in copper alternatives.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports on switches, routers and InfiniBand host channel adapters
• Inter-rack and intra-rack connections in data centers
• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters requiring low-latency links
• Storage area networks (SAN) and server-to-storage connectivity

Key specifications

• Cable type: InfiniBand optical fibre
• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Length: 5 metres
• Data rate class: suitable for 10 Gbps performance
• Optical medium: fibre optic for low attenuation and EMI immunity
• Typical use: short to medium reach between rack equipment

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port of the devices to be linked, ensuring the latch engages and the connector is seated securely. Route the cable through cable management paths to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for fibre. After connection, verify link status and interface configuration on both devices and perform any required network configuration or diagnostics to confirm operational data rates and error-free transmission.

Recommendations

Store and handle the fibre cable carefully to avoid kinks and contamination of connector endfaces. Clean connector endfaces before mating if any dust or debris is suspected. For reliable long-term operation, use proper cable management in racks, avoid exceeding recommended bend radius, and periodically inspect connectors and link performance in critical installations.
