InfiniBand/kuitu-kaapeli BlueOptics 74752-1108-BL 1 m SFP+ uros/uros

The BlueOptics 74752-1108-BL is a 1 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with SFP+ male-to-male connectors designed for short-distance, high-speed interconnects in rack and adjacent-rack environments. Built to support SFP+ ports and common 10G protocols such as Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel and InfiniBand, this cable provides a compact connection for switches, storage systems and network appliances that accept SFP+ direct-attach interconnects. The cable is presented in a blue jacket for easy identification in dense cabling runs.

Advantages

The cable offers a direct-attach SFP+ connection that simplifies patching between compatible devices without additional transceivers. As a short-reach solution it delivers low latency and low power use compared with active optics or longer copper links. Conformance to common SFP+ and direct-attach form factors ensures broad compatibility with hardware platforms that support SFP+ passive links, while the compact 1 m length reduces cable slack and improves rack airflow and cable management.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers within a rack or to adjacent racks
• Short-distance links between storage arrays and servers supporting SFP+ interfaces
• 10G Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel and InfiniBand applications up to 10 Gbit/s over 1 m
• Data center patching and high-density rack interconnects

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Cable length: 1 meter
• Transmission support: up to 10 Gbit/s per link (Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel, InfiniBand)
• Cable type: direct-attach (passive) short-reach interconnect
• Jacket colour: blue
• Designed for short-distance rack and adjacent-rack connections

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 74752-1108-BL by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your devices until they click into place. Ensure both endpoints support passive SFP+ direct-attach cables and that device firmware or software permits passive links. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive strain; maintain the 1 m length to minimize excess slack. If replacing an existing link, power down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by your hardware vendor when required.

Recommendations

Verify device compatibility before use: confirm that both network endpoints explicitly support passive SFP+ direct-attach cables and the targeted 10G protocols. For optimal reliability, avoid tight bends, secure the cable to maintain airflow in racks, and keep spare samples for testing during upgrades or troubleshooting.
