SFP+ Cable BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M-WE 2m Male/Male Black

The BlueOptics SFP-H10GB-CU2M-WE is a 2-meter SFP+ direct-attach copper cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet interconnects. With SFP+ male connectors on both ends and a compact, low-latency construction, this cable provides a straightforward wired connection between compatible SFP+ ports on switches, routers, servers and network interface cards. The black outer jacket and fixed 2 m length make it suitable for short-range cabinet or rack-to-rack links where a reliable, cost-effective 10 Gb/s connection is required.

Advantages

This SFP+ cable offers native SFP+ port compatibility without the need for additional transceivers, delivering low power consumption and minimal latency compared with optical alternatives for short distances. Its direct-attach copper design simplifies deployment and reduces component count, and the standardized SFP+ male-to-male connectors ensure broad interoperability with equipment that supports SFP+ interfaces. The 2 m length is convenient for tidy cabling within racks and between adjacent devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers within the same rack
• Server to top-of-rack switch uplinks in data centers
• Direct interconnects between network interface cards and switches
• Short-range 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in enterprise and lab environments

Key specifications

• Cable length: 2 m
• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Supported link speed: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 Gb/s)
• Conductor type: direct-attach copper
• Colour: Black outer jacket

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector firmly into the corresponding SFP+ slot on the devices you intend to interconnect. Ensure both devices support SFP+ direct-attach copper cables and that ports are powered off or set to allow hot-plugging according to device documentation. After connection, verify link status and speed on both devices' management interfaces. Avoid kinking the cable and maintain gentle bend radii to preserve signal integrity.

Recommendations

Use this 2 m BlueOptics SFP+ cable for short-distance 10 Gb/s links where low latency and low power are priorities. For longer distances or where optical isolation is required, consider appropriate fiber-based SFP+ modules and fiber patch cables. Store and route the cable within rack cable management to prevent strain on connectors and maintain consistent airflow.
