InfiniBand-kabel CBO AFBR-2CAR15Z-BO — 15 m SFP+ aqua

InfiniBand cable CBO AFBR-2CAR15Z-BO — 15 m SFP+ aqua is a 15-metre, aqua-coloured SFP+ direct attach-style cable designed to provide high-speed, low-latency connections between networking equipment. It is intended for use with SFP+ ports and supports InfiniBand and 10 Gigabit Ethernet links where a reliable short-to-medium range copper or active optical connection is required. The cable’s length and connector type make it suitable for inter-rack and intra-rack connections in data centres and server rooms, enabling consistent throughput for switches, host channel adapters and storage interfaces.

Advantages

The cable offers a standardized SFP+ form factor that ensures compatibility with a wide range of SFP+ ports, enabling straightforward installation without additional adapters. Its 15 m length provides flexibility for typical rack-to-rack and within-rack cabling scenarios while preserving signal integrity for high-speed InfiniBand and 10GbE links. The aqua colour improves cable identification and rack organisation, helping to reduce maintenance time and avoid accidental disconnection during service operations.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, servers and storage systems using SFP+ InfiniBand or 10GbE transceivers
• Inter-rack and intra-rack links in data centres and server rooms
• High-speed point-to-point connections between HCAs and host systems
• Environments requiring clear cable identification through colour coding

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ compatible plugs designed for SFP+ ports
• Length: 15 metres
• Colour: aqua for visual identification
• Supported link technologies: InfiniBand and 10 Gigabit Ethernet (SFP+)
• Intended range: short-to-medium range interconnects within racks and between nearby racks

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the networking devices until the latch engages; ensure ports are powered down or follow hot‑swap procedures recommended by the device manufacturer if live insertion is supported. Route the cable through appropriate cable management channels and avoid sharp bends to maintain signal quality. Verify link status and negotiated speed on both endpoints after connection to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable within recommended bend radius limits, keep it away from sources of electromagnetic interference, and label both ends to simplify maintenance. Match the cable to devices that explicitly support SFP+ direct attach or active optical SFP+ modules for InfiniBand or 10GbE to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.
