BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M-F1 InfiniBand fibre optic cable 2 m SFP+ Black

The BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M-F1 InfiniBand fibre optic cable 2 m SFP+ Black is a 2-metre, high-speed direct-attach cable designed for short-range connectivity between SFP+ ports. With SFP+ (SFP-H10GB) compatible male-to-male connectors, this cable supports reliable data transmission for networking equipment that accepts SFP+ transceivers. The compact, black jacket and straightforward plug-and-play design make it suitable for use in dense rack environments and server-to-switch connections.

Advantages

This cable provides stable, low-latency links suitable for InfiniBand and 10 Gigabit Ethernet environments. The SFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of modern network switches, servers and storage systems that use SFP+ ports. Its 2 m length balances flexibility and signal integrity for rack-mounted setups, while the factory-terminated male connectors eliminate the need for separate transceivers and simplify installation.

Suitable for

• Short-range connections between servers and switches using SFP+ ports
• Data centre top-of-rack and middle-of-row interconnects
• High-performance computing (HPC) and InfiniBand-enabled clusters
• Storage area networks (SAN) requiring 10 Gbps links

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Length: 2 metres
• Supported interfaces: InfiniBand, 10 Gigabit Ethernet (SFP+ compatible)
• Cable jacket colour: Black
• Form factor: Direct-attach copper/fibre optic style for short-range links

How to use

Identify two compatible SFP+ ports on the devices you want to connect. Remove any dust caps from the SFP+ connectors and insert each end of the cable firmly into the corresponding port until the latch engages. Verify link activity through device LEDs or management interfaces and confirm that the port settings (speed and duplex) are appropriate for 10 Gbps operation. For removal, depress the latch and pull the connector straight out to avoid damage.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short-distance, high-bandwidth interconnects inside racks or between adjacent racks. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force; maintain minimum bend radius as recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Store unused cables in a clean, dry place to prevent contamination of connectors.
