BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 2 m SFP28 Male/Male MCP2M00-A01A

The BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 2 m SFP28 Male/Male MCP2M00-A01A is a 2-metre high-speed duplex fibre assembly with SFP28 terminations on both ends. Designed for use in modern network infrastructures and data centre environments, this cable supports low-latency, high-bandwidth connections between SFP28-capable ports and InfiniBand or compatible fibre transceivers. The compact, male-to-male SFP28 connectors provide a direct plug-in solution for short-reach optical links where reliable signal integrity and minimal insertion loss are required.

Advantages

This 2 m fibre optic cable offers predictable optical performance with consistent attenuation characteristics suitable for short-reach links. The SFP28 male connectors enable straightforward installation into SFP28 ports without additional adapters, while the duplex arrangement supports full-duplex communication for simultaneous transmit and receive channels. Constructed for use in demanding networking racks and server rooms, the cable balances flexibility and durability for repeated handling during installation or reconfiguration.

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure both ends of the cable are compatible with the SFP28 ports and the optical transceivers installed in each device. Power down equipment if recommended by the device manufacturer, then insert the SFP28 connectors into the corresponding ports until they latch. Route the cable through the rack or cable management system to avoid sharp bends and excessive stress. After connection, verify link status via device LEDs or management interfaces and confirm data throughput and error statistics to validate proper operation.

Recommendations

Protect connector end-faces from dust and contamination by keeping dust caps in place until installation. Maintain minimum bend radius specified by the cable manufacturer, avoid tension on the connectors, and use proper cable management to extend service life and ensure consistent optical performance.
