InLine 27135 SFP+ naar SFP+ DAC-kabel, passief, 10 Gbit/s, 5 m, zwart

The InLine 27135 InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5 m SFP+ Black is a multimode optical connection cable designed for high-speed data transmission between SFP+ ports. At 5 meters length, it offers a practical reach for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-switch connections in data centers and high-performance computing racks. The black jacket provides mechanical protection and a neutral appearance for integration into structured cabling.

Advantages

This InfiniBand fibre optic cable supports low-latency, high-bandwidth links typical for SFP+ infrastructures, enabling reliable signal integrity over the 5 m distance. The cable uses industry-standard SFP+ connector interfaces on both ends for plug-and-play compatibility with SFP+ ports. The durable outer jacket and precise connector terminations reduce insertion loss and improve longevity under regular installation and maintenance cycles.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers to SFP+ switches or host bus adapters in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand network links
• Short to medium reach fibre links inside racks and between adjacent racks
• Environments requiring standardized SFP+ fibre connections with compact routing

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ on both ends
• Cable length: 5 m
• Cable type: multimode fibre optical cable suitable for InfiniBand/SFP+ use
• Colour: black outer jacket
• Designed for low insertion loss and controlled return loss to support high-speed links

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible SFP+ ports and are powered down or follow hot-plug guidelines from the device manufacturer. Align the SFP+ connector and insert it into the port until it locks; repeat for the second end. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress, keeping the bend radius within the manufacturer's recommendations for multimode fibre. Verify link status indicators on connected devices to confirm a successful connection and perform any required network configuration or diagnostics.

Recommendations

Handle the fibre connectors by the housing and avoid touching the polished endfaces. Use dust caps when connectors are not plugged in, and inspect/clean endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before installation. For optimal performance, maintain bend radius, secure cable routing to prevent tension, and follow equipment vendor guidelines for SFP+ module compatibility and transceiver settings.
