InfiniBand/fibre optic cable BlueOptics TAPCABLE1M-BL 1 m SFP+ Male/Male

The BlueOptics TAPCABLE1M-BL is a 1 m InfiniBand / fibre optic cable with SFP+ male connectors on both ends. It is intended for short-range high-speed links in racks and between adjacent rack units where SFP+ interfaces are used. The cable supports up to 10 Gbps electrical/fibre-class transmission speeds over a 1 meter distance and is compatible with devices that accept SFP+ direct attach connections.

Advantages

This 1 m SFP+ male-to-male cable provides a compact and low-latency connection option for data centre and networking equipment. The cable follows MSA-compliant SFP+ interface conventions and is built to be compatible with a wide range of switches, routers, storage systems and host adapters that support SFP+ direct attach connections. Its passive direct-attach construction delivers low power consumption and a simple design that reduces points of failure for stable short-range links.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector firmly into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be linked, ensuring proper latch engagement. Use the cable for short-range connections (1 m) between compatible SFP+ ports on switches, servers, storage systems or host adapters. Confirm that both devices officially support passive direct attach SFP+ links or the relevant electrical/fibre protocol (Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel or InfiniBand) at 10 Gbps before use. When removing the cable, release the SFP+ latches and pull straight out to avoid stress on ports.

Recommendations

Avoid sharp bends and excessive tension on the cable; route it along rack cable channels and secure with Velcro or cable ties where appropriate. Verify firmware and driver compatibility on connected devices to ensure the SFP+ direct attach link is recognized and operates at the expected data rate.
