Cisco SFP-H10GB-CU3M-C InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 3 m SFP+ Orange

The Cisco SFP-H10GB-CU3M-C is a 3 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with SFP+ connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed short-range links between compatible network interfaces. Its orange jacket and SFP+ termination provide reliable connectivity for switches, servers and storage systems in data centers and enterprise networks while minimising signal loss over short distances.

Advantages

This SFP+ copper/active optical assembly offers a standardized SFP+ form factor for easy installation, a 3-metre length that fits common rack and cabinet layouts, and an orange colour for simple cable identification. The cable supports high-throughput links and is suitable for use where short-reach, low-latency connections are required between SFP+ ports.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers
• Short-range links between servers and storage arrays
• Top-of-rack and patch-panel connections in data centres
