InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel BlueOptics 10GB-C05-SFPP-BL 5 m SFP+ zwart

The BlueOptics 10GB-C05-SFPP-BL is a 5 m fibre optic InfiniBand cable with SFP+ connectors on both ends, designed to provide high-speed data transfer and stable connectivity for networking equipment. This single cable supports 10 Gbps class links and is suitable for short to medium reach connections in rack, switch-to-server, and storage area network environments. The cable's black jacket and compact SFP+ form factor offer a discreet, space-efficient solution for dense installations where reliable, low-latency links are required.

Advantages

The cable delivers consistent 10 Gbps throughput with low signal attenuation and is engineered for compatibility with SFP+ ports. Its fibre construction minimizes electromagnetic interference and supports longer, more reliable links compared with copper alternatives. The 5 m length balances reach and cable management flexibility, while the SFP+ connector design enables hot-pluggable installation and straightforward integration into existing network hardware.

Suitable for

• Connections between SFP+ ports on switches and servers
• Interconnects in data centre racks and top-of-rack switching
• Storage area network links and SAN fabric connections
• High-bandwidth, low-latency applications such as virtualization and clustered computing

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ on both ends
• Cable type: fibre optic for InfiniBand-class performance
• Data rate support: 10 Gbps-class links
• Length: 5 metres
• Jacket colour: black
• Form factor: SFP+ small form-factor pluggable

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices are powered and configured to operate at 10 Gbps or compatible link speeds. Verify link status through device LEDs or management interfaces and adjust port configuration if necessary for the expected protocol and duplex settings. Handle the fibre cable by the connector bodies and avoid tight bends to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension, keep connectors free of dust, and use dust caps when ports are not in use. Confirm device compatibility with SFP+ optics before deployment and monitor link status after installation to ensure stable operation.
