BlueOptics XDL-TWX0501-BL InfiniBand sklenené vlákno kábel 5 m SFP+

The BlueOptics XDL-TWX0501-BL InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5 m SFP+ is a 5‑metre high-speed connection cable with SFP+ terminations designed for short-range links in rack and data centre environments. It provides a compact, MSA-compliant SFP+ interface for 10 Gbps-class applications and is intended to deliver reliable connectivity for switches, storage systems and network devices that support SFP+ transceivers and InfiniBand or 10GBase-CR compatible links.

Advantages

This cable offers stable, low-latency data transmission over a short 5 m distance and is suitable for direct attach applications where an SFP+ interface is required. Manufactured to MSA-compatible mechanical and electrical specifications, it is designed to interoperate with common networking hardware that supports the original vendor-compatible 10GBase-CR/SFP+ connections. The design emphasises simple installation, reduced power consumption compared with active modules, and robust component selection intended to support long service life in professional environments.

Suitable for

• Short-range links between switches and routers within racks or between adjacent racks
• High-speed connections to storage arrays and servers with SFP+ ports
• InfiniBand and 10G Ethernet (10GBase-CR) applications where passive SFP+ direct attach cables are supported

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 metres
• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
• Supported data rates: up to 10 Gbps class (suitable for 10GBase-CR and InfiniBand use cases)
• Cable type: passive direct attach (twinax copper) for short-distance electrical signal transfer
• Construction: 24 AWG twinax conductor
• Form factor: MSA-compliant SFP+ mechanical interface

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be linked, ensuring both ends are fully seated and the retention latch is engaged. Verify that the connected hardware supports passive direct attach SFP+ twinax cables and that firmware or port configuration allows 10GBase-CR or InfiniBand operation. After physical installation, check link status and device logs to confirm the link is up and operating at the expected data rate.

Recommendations

Use this passive SFP+ cable for short interconnects (up to 5 m) inside racks or between adjacent racks; avoid routing near strong electromagnetic interference sources and maintain bend radius recommendations for twinax cables to preserve signal integrity and longevity.
