CBO InfiniBand kábel MCP2M00-A005-BL – 5 m, kompatibilný so SFP28, pasívny/aktívny nešpecifikovaný

CBO InfiniBand cable MCP2M00-A005-BL — 5 m, SFP28-compatible, passive/active unspecified is a 5‑metre connection cable designed for use with SFP28-compatible InfiniBand ports. The cable provides a direct physical link between switches, host adapters or optical/electrical transceivers equipped with SFP28 interfaces. It is intended for high‑speed data interconnects in data centres, server rooms and HPC clusters where a 5 m reach is required. The cable type (passive or active) is not specified, so compatibility should be verified with the connected equipment before deployment.

Advantages

The cable supports SFP28 form-factor connectivity, enabling straightforward integration with devices that accept SFP28 modules or direct-attach cables. A 5‑metre length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or within-rack connections without additional patching. Designed for InfiniBand environments, the cable is suitable for low-latency, high-bandwidth links commonly required in storage, compute and networking applications. Because the cable can be used with SFP28 interfaces, it allows reuse of existing SFP28 ports and transceivers, simplifying upgrades and infrastructure changes.

Key specifications

How to use

Confirm that both endpoints accept SFP28-compatible connections and that the devices support the intended InfiniBand link speed. Insert the appropriate SFP28 connector into the SFP28 port on each device, ensuring the connector latch engages. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain, and secure it to prevent accidental disconnection. After physical connection, verify link status and performance via the host or switch management interface and perform any required configuration for the InfiniBand fabric.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with your hardware vendor for SFP28 and InfiniBand support, especially since the cable is not marked explicitly as passive or active. For best signal integrity, avoid sharp bends, maintain recommended bend radius, and keep the cable clear of sources of electromagnetic interference. Use this 5 m cable for rack-to-rack or within-rack connections where a full 5-m reach is necessary; consider shorter or certified active cable options if vendor documentation requires them.
