BlueOptics 10GB-F07-SFPP-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 7 m SFP+ SFP+ AOC Orange

The BlueOptics 10GB-F07-SFPP-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 7 m active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ connectors on both ends. Designed for 10G data links, this pre-assembled multimode fiber cable implements SFP+ to SFP+ connectivity according to MSA standards and supports short-range 10GBASE-SR class transmissions. The cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules in each SFP+ end to enable bidirectional optical signaling without separate transceivers, providing a plug-and-play solution for data centers, storage systems and high-performance computing environments.

Advantages

The BlueOptics AOC eliminates the need for separate fiber patching and external transceivers while maintaining MSA-compliant SFP+ electrical and mechanical interfaces. Being a multimode optical link, it is immune to electromagnetic interference and suitable for low-latency 10G connections. The integrated digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) capability provides real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, laser output power, received power and temperature when supported by host hardware. The pre-terminated assembly simplifies deployment and reduces maintenance compared with patched fiber links.

Suitable for

• 10G Ethernet links between switches and servers
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and storage interconnects
• High-performance computing cluster interconnects
• Short-reach connections inside data centers and server rooms

Key specifications

• Length: 7 m
• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
• Standard: 10GBASE-SR class, SFP+ AOC MSA compliant
• Media: Multimode fibre with integrated transceivers at both ends
• Data rate: Up to 10 Gbit/s
• Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM): supported when host hardware provides support

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into compatible SFP+ ports on your switches, routers or servers while the devices are powered according to vendor guidelines. Verify that the host hardware supports SFP+ AOC modules and, if needed, enable or verify DDM/DOM monitoring in the device management interface to access diagnostic values. For best results, handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends or sharp kinks; follow your hardware vendor's port insertion and removal procedures.

Recommendations

Confirm compatibility with the target hardware platform and, if required by your operational policy, request a sample test to validate link behavior and DDM data reporting. Use the cable for short-reach multimode 10G links inside racks and data center aisles, keep bend radius within manufacturer guidance, and avoid exposure to strong mechanical stress or contamination of connector endfaces.
