InfiniBand cable CBO AFBR-2CAR30Z-BO 30 m SFP+ aqua

The InfiniBand cable CBO AFBR-2CAR30Z-BO 30 m SFP+ aqua is a fixed-length, SFP+ compatible fiber patch cable designed for high-speed InfiniBand and SFP+ interconnects. With a 30 meter length and aqua jacket, this BlueOptics cable provides a single-mode or multimode-compatible physical connection between SFP+ transceivers and network equipment in data centers, server rooms and high-performance computing environments where a longer optical link is required.

Advantages

This cable delivers a stable optical link over a 30 m span and is engineered for use with SFP+ form-factor transceivers and InfiniBand ports. The aqua jacket offers easy identification in cabling runs. Its fixed-length design reduces the need for splicing or additional adapters, simplifying installation and maintenance in rack and cabinet deployments. The cable is suitable for high-throughput, low-latency applications where consistent signal quality is important.

Suitable for

• Interconnection of SFP+ transceivers in data center racks
• InfiniBand links between server clusters and compute nodes
• High-performance computing (HPC) network backbones
• Longer optical runs inside large server rooms or wiring closets

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ compatible
• Cable length: 30 m
• Jacket color: aqua for easy identification
• Fixed-length fiber patch cable suitable for optical interconnects
• Designed for high-speed InfiniBand and SFP+ data links

How to use

Ensure both ends are fitted with compatible SFP+ transceivers or ports before connecting. Route the cable through cable management channels or trays to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension. Insert each connector into the transceiver or SFP+ port until it latches securely. Verify link status on connected network devices and run appropriate diagnostics to confirm optical power levels and error rates after installation.

Recommendations

Avoid tight bends and kinks; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Keep connector end-faces clean and protected from dust; inspect and, if necessary, clean connectors with appropriate fiber-optic cleaning tools before mating. For cable runs in densely populated racks, label both ends and secure the cable to reduce mechanical strain and simplify future maintenance.
