BlueOptics InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 15 m SFP28 stekker/stekker 7Z57A03544-BO

The BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 15 m SFP28 Male/Male is a 15-metre duplex fibre cable with SFP28 form-factor connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed data transmission in server, storage and switch interconnects. The cable supports low-latency, high-bandwidth links suitable for InfiniBand and other compatible networking interfaces. Constructed for secure plug-and-play connection, it provides a compact, lightweight alternative to copper cabling for short to medium reach data centre and enterprise use.

Advantages

This SFP28-to-SFP28 fibre cable delivers stable signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives, enabling reliable high-rate data transfers. Its 15 m length offers flexibility in rack-to-rack or within-rack installations while keeping a small physical footprint. The male/male SFP28 connectors simplify insertion into compatible transceiver slots and ensure consistent mechanical alignment for repeated use.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting servers and switches in data centres
• High-performance computing clusters using InfiniBand
• Storage area network (SAN) links and aggregation ports
• Short- to medium-reach fibre connections within racks and between adjacent racks

Key specifications

• Cable type: duplex fibre optic cable with SFP28 connectors
• Length: 15 metres
• Connector gender: male to male (SFP28 form factor)
• Supported interface: InfiniBand and compatible high-speed fibre interfaces
• Typical use: short- to medium-reach data centre interconnects

How to use

Ensure both network devices support SFP28 transceivers or SFP28 direct-attach cables and are powered off or have hot-swap capability per manufacturer guidance. Align the SFP28 connectors with the transceiver slots and insert until the latch engages. Verify link status on connected devices and check for expected speed and lane status in device management interfaces. When removing, depress the latch and pull the connector straight out to avoid damaging the transceiver.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Keep connectors capped when not in use to prevent contamination. For optimal performance, use in environments with controlled temperature and humidity and periodically inspect connectors for dust or damage before connection.
