BlueOptics S+AO0002-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 2 m SFP+ Male/Male

The BlueOptics S+AO0002-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable is a 2 m active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ male connectors on both ends, designed for 10GBASE-SR multimode applications. It integrates transceivers at each connector to transmit and receive optical signals over multimode fiber, providing a pre-assembled, plug-and-play connection suitable for switches, routers, storage systems and other network equipment that support SFP+ AOC interfaces. The cable follows MSA SFP+ AOC specifications for electrical, mechanical and functional interoperability and supports common protocols such as Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet up to 10 Gbit/s over the 2 m length.

Advantages

This 2 m BlueOptics AOC delivers stable high-speed data transmission without susceptibility to electromagnetic interference, since it uses optical laser signaling over multimode fiber. Built to MSA standards, the cable provides direct SFP+ to SFP+ connectivity without additional patching or connector cleaning, and includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) support for real-time parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature when the host hardware exposes DDM data. The product is designed with quality components and tested for compatibility with major BlueOptics-supported platforms to ensure functional interoperability and extended operational lifetime.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port of the devices to be linked, ensuring correct alignment and a secure mechanical fit. No additional patch cables or polishing are required. If DDM/DOM is needed, verify that the connected devices support and expose the diagnostic data via their management interface to read supply voltage, laser parameters and temperature in real time. After connection, check link status and port configuration on both ends and configure network interfaces or zoning as required by your network design.

Recommendations

Use the BlueOptics S+AO0002-BO AOC for short-reach, high-bandwidth intra-rack or inter-rack links up to 2 m. Avoid tight bends near the connector boot, maintain rack strain relief to prevent mechanical stress, and verify DDM compatibility on the host devices before relying on diagnostic readouts. Store and handle the cable according to standard fibre optic care practices to preserve lifetime and signal quality.
