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

The BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M-SY InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 2 m SFP+ Black is a 2-metre, SFP+ to SFP+ direct-attach cable designed for high-speed server and switch interconnections. It supports 10 Gigabit data rates over a short reach and is suitable for InfiniBand and SFP+-compatible fibre or copper ports. The cable’s compact form factor and black jacket offer a low-profile, durable connection for rack-mounted equipment and blade servers.

Advantages

This SFP+ cable delivers low-latency, high-bandwidth links with plug-and-play connectivity, requiring no additional transceivers. Its fixed 2 m length simplifies cable management in dense equipment racks while reducing signal loss compared with longer passive links. The SFP+ connectors ensure standardized mating with compatible ports, and the robust outer jacket provides mechanical protection for frequent reconfigurations.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches and servers
• InfiniBand linkups in high-performance computing clusters
• Short-reach connections in data centre racks and blade enclosures
• Direct server-to-switch or switch-to-switch cabling in enterprise networks

Key specifications

• Cable length: 2 m
• Connector type: SFP+ on both ends
• Supported data rate: 10 Gbit/s (SFP+ standard)
• Cable colour: Black
• Form factor: Direct attach cable (DAC) suitable for short-reach links

How to use

Power off or follow hot-plugging guidelines for your equipment, then insert each SFP+ connector into the appropriate SFP+/InfiniBand port until it latches. Confirm link status on the connected devices and configure network interfaces as required by your operating system or switch management interface. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and ensure the cable is routed to minimize electromagnetic interference and mechanical strain.

Recommendations

Use this 2 m SFP+ direct-attach cable for short-distance, high-speed connections inside racks and cabinets. Keep the cable secured with ties or cable management channels and replace if the outer jacket or connectors show visible wear. Verify compatibility with your switch or server vendor for any vendor-specific settings or transceiver restrictions.
