BlueOptics ONS-SC+-10G-CU3= InfiniBand fibre optic cable 3 m SFP+ Black

The BlueOptics ONS-SC+-10G-CU3= InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 3 m SFP+ patch cable designed for high-speed interconnects in data centres and networking environments. This black cable uses SFP+ compatible connectors and male terminations to provide low-latency, high-throughput links between switches, servers and storage appliances. The construction focuses on reliable signal transmission and compatibility with InfiniBand and 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ ports.

Advantages

The cable delivers stable high-speed performance with minimal insertion loss and consistent signal integrity across the 3 m length. Its SFP+ connector format ensures broad compatibility with common SFP+ ports and transceivers while the compact, flexible design makes routing and installation in dense racks straightforward. The black jacket provides a professional appearance and basic mechanical protection for regular data centre use.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers to top-of-rack or leaf switches using SFP+ ports
• Interlinking storage arrays and host bus adapters with InfiniBand or 10 Gb connections
• Short-reach connections inside racks, cages or patch panels
• Environments requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth links for clustering or HPC

Key specifications

• Cable type: InfiniBand / SFP+ compatible fibre optic patch cable
• Length: 3 metres
• Connector type: SFP+ male connectors
• Color: Black outer jacket
• Suitable for: 10 Gigabit and InfiniBand interconnects with SFP+ ports
• Design focus: Low insertion loss, high signal integrity for short-reach links

How to use

Insert the SFP+ connector ends into compatible SFP+ ports on networking equipment, ensuring correct orientation and a secure seating until a tactile click is felt. Route the 3 m cable through rack channels or cable management guides to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension. Verify link status on connected devices after installation and replace or reseat the cable if any port reports errors or link loss.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force; maintain recommended bend radius for SFP+ cabling, keep connectors clean and free of dust, and use proper cable management in racks to reduce mechanical stress and signal degradation.
