BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M InfiniBand/Glasvezelkabel 2 m SFP+ Zwart

The BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M is a 2-meter SFP+ passive cable designed for short-range high-speed connections in data centers and enterprise networks. With SFP+ connectors on both ends, this cable provides a direct attach solution for InfiniBand and 10 GbE environments where reliable, low-latency interconnects are required. Its compact, low-profile design simplifies rack and switch-to-server cabling while maintaining signal integrity for 10 Gbit/s links over a short distance.

Advantages

This SFP+ cable offers a cost-effective, low-power alternative to optical transceivers and separate fiber assemblies, reducing complexity and power consumption while keeping latency minimal. The fixed 2 m length is suitable for common rack and shelf layouts, and the integrated SFP+ connectors ensure compatibility with equipment that accepts SFP+ direct-attach copper or passive twinax assemblies. The cable's construction provides consistent performance for 10 Gbit/s data rates and helps maintain stable connections in dense networking setups.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections within the same rack or adjacent racks
• High-performance computing clusters using InfiniBand or 10 GbE interconnects
• Short-range data center cabling where low latency and reduced power consumption are priorities

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ on both ends
• Length: 2 meters
• Data rate support: 10 Gbit/s (suitable for 10 GbE and compatible InfiniBand links)
• Cable type: Passive direct-attach assembly (twinax-style)
• Color: Black

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your switches, servers, or host adapters until the latch engages. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-swap instructions for your hardware when connecting or disconnecting to avoid port errors. Verify link status in your network equipment management interface and confirm 10 Gbit/s negotiation where applicable. Use proper cable routing to avoid sharp bends and to maintain airflow in server racks.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use this 2 m SFP+ cable for connections within a single rack or between adjacent racks. Avoid exceeding the recommended bend radius, keep the cable clear of heat sources, and check compatibility lists for your switches and network adapters to ensure proper link negotiation and vendor interoperability.
