Cabo de fibra ótica InfiniBand BlueOptics 00VX111-BL 1 m SFP+ macho/macho

The BlueOptics 00VX111-BL is a 1 m InfiniBand/fibre optic direct attach cable with SFP+ male connectors on both ends, engineered for short-reach high-speed links. Designed to connect servers, switches and storage in rack and adjacent-rack environments, this cable supports 10G-class electrical signal transmission over a passive twinax/Direct Attach Cable (DAC) topology and follows MSA-compliant SFP+ connectivity for broad compatibility with major networking platforms.

Advantages

This 1 m SFP+ Male/Male cable offers a low-latency, low-power and cost-effective connection for short-distance interconnects. Built using high-quality components and MSA-compliant assembly practices, it provides reliable signal integrity for Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and InfiniBand applications up to 10 Gbit/s. The passive twinax design reduces complexity and power consumption while delivering predictable performance and a long service life in data centre environments.

Suitable for

• Point-to-point links between switches in the same rack or adjacent racks
• Server-to-switch connections in data centre racks
• Storage system interconnects supporting SFP+ ports
• Short-reach InfiniBand, Ethernet and FCoE links up to 10 Gbit/s

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Cable length: 1 metre
• Technology: passive direct attach twinax/DAC
• Supported data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s
• Wire gauge: 30 AWG (typical for short-reach DAC)
• Compliance: SFP+ MSA compatible

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be linked, ensuring the latch clicks into place. Use this cable for short-distance electrical links where the connected hardware explicitly supports passive SFP+ DACs. Verify port configuration and link speed on both endpoints after physical installation; device firmware or driver settings may be required to enable passive DAC support.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress, maintain appropriate airflow in rack enclosures, and confirm that the network hardware supports passive SFP+ DACs. Use this cable for links up to 1 m; for longer distances consider active optical or active copper solutions.
