BlueOptics 10G-SFPP-TWX-0308-BL InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 3 m SFP+ stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics 10G-SFPP-TWX-0308-BL InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 3 m SFP+ Male/Male is a 3-metre multimode fibre cable designed for 10 Gigabit data links. It uses SFP+ compatible connectors on both ends to provide a stable optical connection between transceivers in switches, servers and storage equipment. The cable is intended for short-range high-speed interconnects where low attenuation and consistent signal integrity are required.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable provides a loss-minimising optical path for 10G links and supports SFP+ transceiver interfaces for broad compatibility with modern networking hardware. The 3 m length offers flexibility for rack and cabinet connections without excess slack, and the plug-to-plug construction simplifies installation. The cable’s design reduces electromagnetic interference concerns inherent to copper cabling and helps maintain consistent throughput for latency-sensitive applications.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting SFP+ ports on network switches and routers
• Linking servers to storage arrays or SAN switches
• Short-reach connections in data centres and server rooms
• High-bandwidth InfiniBand or Fibre Channel links requiring 10G optical interfaces

Key specifications

• Length: 3 metres
• Connector type: SFP+ compatible male-to-male optical connectors
• Transmission rate: suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links
• Medium: multimode fibre (short-reach optical transmission)
• Typical use: direct fibre interconnect between transceivers in racks and cabinets

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible SFP+ transceivers installed and that the transceivers support the same optical parameters. Route the fibre cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain, then gently insert each SFP+ connector into the transceiver port until it latches. Verify link status on both devices and confirm negotiated speed and signal quality through the equipment management interface or indicator LEDs. If link issues occur, check connector cleanliness and transceiver compatibility before replacing components.

Recommendations

Maintain connector end-face cleanliness by using appropriate fibre cleaning tools before insertion. Avoid tight bends and secure the cable within the rack to prevent stress on connectors. Use this 3 m SFP+ fibre cable for short-reach 10G connections where optical performance and immunity to electromagnetic interference are important.
