BlueOptics ET5402-AOC-5M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable SFP+ 5m Male/Male

The BlueOptics ET5402-AOC-5M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable SFP+ 5m Male/Male is a 5‑meter active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ connectors designed for 10GBASE‑SR transmission over multimode fiber. The cable integrates a transmitter and receiver at each end and follows MSA SFP+ standards for plug‑and‑play connectivity. It is intended for high‑speed links in data center and high‑performance computing environments where low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference are required.

Advantages

This AOC provides reliable 10 Gbps data transmission across a 5 m multimode fiber link without the need for separate transceivers or patch cords, reducing connector loss and cleaning requirements. Built to MSA standards, it offers digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) support for real‑time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and temperature when the host hardware supports the feature. The integrated optical components and ICs are selected to meet high quality and longevity expectations, enabling long operational life and reduced maintenance.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be connected, ensuring correct seating and that the host hardware supports SFP+ modules and, if required, DDM/DOM. No additional transceivers or patch panels are necessary since the cable is pre‑assembled and active. Verify link status through the device management interface and, if available, monitor diagnostic values via DDM/DOM to confirm optical performance and temperature. Handle connectors by the housing and avoid touching the optical interfaces.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short‑reach 10 Gbps links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Ensure compatible SFP+ ports and firmware support before deployment. Avoid tight bends and physical stress on the cable to maintain signal integrity and service life.
