InfiniBand/optický kábel BlueOptics 330-5966-BL 1 m SFP+ konektor samec/konektor samec

The BlueOptics 330-5966-BL is a 1 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with SFP+ male connectors on both ends. Designed for short-reach, high-speed links, this cable supports 10 Gbps data rates and is suitable for connecting switches, servers and storage in rack and adjacent-rack environments. The cable implements a direct attach twinax approach for electrical signal transfer over short distances and follows industry MSA guidelines to ensure interoperability with devices that accept SFP+ direct attach connections.

Advantages

This SFP+ male-to-male cable provides a compact, low-latency connection with minimal power overhead and a simple passive design that reduces points of failure. Constructed with quality materials and compliant with MSA specifications, the cable offers predictable electrical performance for 10GBase-CR, Ethernet, FCoE and InfiniBand applications up to 1 m. The passive twinax design keeps power consumption low and simplifies installation and maintenance in dense data center deployments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbps links between switches and servers within the same rack or adjacent racks
• Short-distance connections for storage systems and SAN components
• High-density networking environments where SFP+ ports are available
• Environments using Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel or InfiniBand protocols up to 10 Gbps

Key specifications

• Cable type: passive twinax direct attach (electrical) with SFP+ connectors
• Connector configuration: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Length: 1 meter
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbps
• Wire gauge: 30 AWG
• Standards: MSA-compliant SFP+ direct attach for 10GBase-CR applications

How to use

Insert each SFP+ plug into the corresponding SFP+ port on the networking devices until the latch engages. Ensure connected hardware officially supports passive SFP+ direct attach twinax cables for 10G operation. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; maintain the minimum bend radius specified by your rack or device guidelines. No external power or configuration is required for the cable itself, but check device firmware and port settings to confirm link speed and protocol compatibility.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, verify port compatibility with passive SFP+ cables in the switch or host adapter documentation before installation. Keep the cable length at 1 m for optimal signal integrity in short-reach deployments and avoid tight bends or kinks. If interoperability with vendor-locked hardware is critical, request a compatibility test sample prior to large-scale deployment.
