BlueOptics OS2X60-CBL-1M-BL InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable SFP+ 1m Male/Male

The BlueOptics OS2X60-CBL-1M-BL InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable SFP+ 1m Male/Male is a 1 meter cable designed for high-speed rack and short-reach interconnections. It uses SFP+ style connectors in a male-to-male configuration to link compatible SFP+ ports on switches, routers, storage systems and host adapters. The cable is intended for reliable data transmission with minimal signal loss in environments that require 10 Gbit/s-class connectivity over a short distance.

Advantages

This BlueOptics cable provides a compact one-meter connection with SFP+ interface compatibility suitable for dense rack deployments. It is manufactured to comply with common SFP+ and MSA physical form-factor requirements and is tested for interoperability with major hardware platforms that accept the corresponding original part. The design focuses on low latency and low power operation for passive short-reach links while offering consistent electrical performance for Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel or InfiniBand protocols up to 10 Gbit/s across the specified length.

Suitable for

• Linking adjacent rack equipment (switch-to-switch, switch-to-server)
• Short-reach 10G connections in data centers and server rooms
• Interconnects for storage arrays, SAN or direct server attachments
• Environments requiring SFP+ compatible passive direct attach cabling

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Cable length: 1 meter
• Application: 10 Gbit/s class links (Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel, InfiniBand)
• Transmission medium: twinax/direct-attach passive short-reach cable
• Wire gauge characteristic: 30 AWG design for low-loss short connections
• Compliance: MSA-aligned SFP+ physical interface and electrical signaling

How to use

Install the BlueOptics OS2X60-CBL-1M-BL by inserting each SFP+ plug into the SFP+ port of the devices you intend to connect, ensuring the latch engages and the connectors are fully seated. Verify that both devices support passive SFP+ direct attach twinax cables and that the network interfaces are configured for the intended protocol and speed. No external power or transceiver modules are required for passive operation; handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid sharp bends along the cable run to preserve signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best results, use this 1 m SFP+ cable for short, direct connections inside racks or between adjacent racks. Confirm compatibility with your device vendor’s supported cable list when used in branded hardware, and avoid running the cable alongside strong electromagnetic sources. Store and route the cable to maintain bend radii specified for twinax cabling and perform periodic visual inspections to ensure connector cleanliness and physical integrity.
