BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M-DL InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 2 m SFP+ Male/Male

The BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M-DL is a 2 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable fitted with SFP+ male connectors on both ends. Designed for short-reach interconnections, this cable supports direct-attach SFP+ ports and provides a compact, low-profile physical link for servers, switches and storage devices. The cable is black, lightweight and suitable for rack-mounted and data centre environments where space and reliable high-speed connections matter.

Advantages

This SFP+ direct-attach cable offers a fixed-length, low-latency connection without the need for separate transceivers, simplifying installation and reducing component count. Its 2 m length balances reach and cable management for common equipment layouts, and the male-to-male SFP+ terminations are compatible with devices that support SFP+ direct-attach copper or equivalent passive/active links. The compact design and modest weight make it easy to route in dense racks while maintaining signal integrity for short-distance high-speed links.

Suitable for

• Direct connections between SFP+ ports on switches and servers
• Interconnecting storage arrays and network appliances in racks
• Short-reach links in data centre top-of-rack and access layers

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Length: 2 m
• Application: InfiniBand / fibre optic direct-attach
• Colour: Black
• Weight: 0.08 kg

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be connected, ensuring the latch mechanism engages. Verify that both devices support SFP+ direct-attach cabling or the corresponding interface mode. After physical installation, check link status LEDs or device interfaces to confirm a successful connection. Avoid sharp bends near the connectors and secure the cable to prevent strain on the ports.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short, high-speed links where a direct-attach SFP+ connection is supported. Maintain bend radius recommended by equipment manufacturers and avoid placing the cable under heavy mechanical stress. For longer runs or different media types, select an appropriate transceiver and optical or copper cabling.
