BlueOptics X-CBL-5M-SFP+-SFP+-BL InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5m SFP+ Male

The BlueOptics X-CBL-5M-SFP+-SFP+-BL InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 5-meter cable with SFP+ male connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed networking in data centers and high-performance computing environments. It provides a physical link for InfiniBand and other compatible 10G-class protocols, enabling reliable data transmission between switches, servers, storage systems and other SFP+ equipped devices. The cable is intended for short to medium rack-to-rack or within-rack connections where SFP+ port compatibility is required.

Advantages

This 5 m SFP+ to SFP+ fibre assembly offers consistent signal integrity and supports high throughput typical for InfiniBand and 10G-class networks. With male SFP+ plugs on both ends, installation is straightforward and compatible with standard SFP+ ports. The cable is suitable for environments that demand stable, low-latency links and is designed to meet common industry mechanical and optical expectations for fibre connections.

Key specifications

How to use

Verify both devices support SFP+ connections and the intended protocol (InfiniBand or compatible 10G optical). Insert each SFP+ male connector into the corresponding SFP+ port until it clicks into place, ensuring proper orientation and secure seating. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for fibre optic cabling. After installation, confirm link status on connected equipment and verify expected data rates and error statistics through device management interfaces.

Recommendations

Use this cable in controlled data centre environments; avoid outdoor exposure and excessive bending. For critical links, perform link tests after installation and consider lab testing compatibility with your specific hardware platform prior to large deployments.
