InfiniBand/kuitu-kaapeli BlueOptics 10G-SFP-TWX-0508-BL 5 m SFP+ uros/uros

The BlueOptics 10G-SFP-TWX-0508-BL is a 5 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with SFP+ male-to-male connectors designed for high-speed data transmission. This cable combines fibre optic signal integrity with a form factor compatible with SFP+ ports, enabling low-latency links between switches, servers, storage arrays and other network equipment. The blue jacket provides clear visual identification in cable runs while the 5 metre length offers a balance between reach and neat deployment in racks and data center corridors.

Advantages

This 5 m SFP+ fibre optic cable supports high-bandwidth links suitable for 10 Gigabit connections and is built for consistent signal quality and reduced interference compared with copper alternatives. The male-to-male SFP+ terminations provide direct compatibility with standard SFP+ ports without additional adapters. Durable jacket material and precision-terminated connectors help ensure reliable connections and repeatable performance in structured cabling and point-to-point links.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers for 10 Gbps links
• Direct server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections in data centers
• Storage area network (SAN) links and high-performance computing nodes
• Short to medium reach fibre runs in telecom and enterprise networks

Key specifications

• Cable type: fibre optic for InfiniBand/SFP+ applications
• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Length: 5 metres
• Rated data rate: suitable for 10 Gigabit-class links
• Color: blue jacket for easy identification
• Typical use environment: data center and enterprise network infrastructure

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector firmly into the corresponding SFP+ port on your devices until the latch engages. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by your hardware vendor if connecting live. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radii for fibre to preserve signal quality. After installation, verify link status and data rate on both endpoints and test throughput to confirm expected performance.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid excessive bending and tension on the cable, keep connectors clean and dust-free, and use proper labeling in multi-cable installations. Match transceiver types and port settings on connected equipment to ensure interoperability and optimal 10 Gbps performance.
