Cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand BlueOptics BO353503J50M-BO 50 m SFP+ colore aqua

The BlueOptics BO353503J50M-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable is a 50 m active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ to SFP+ connectors in aqua colour. Designed for multimode fibre links, this cable supports 10GBASE-SR class transmission and provides a pre-assembled connection with transmitter and receiver modules integrated into the SFP+ ends. The cable follows MSA-compatible SFP+ form factor and is intended for high-speed data transport between switches, routers, storage systems and other networking equipment that accept SFP+ AOCs.

Advantages

This AOC offers fibre-optic transmission that is immune to electromagnetic interference and supports simultaneous transmit and receive operation through SFP+ interfaces. As an active optical cable it eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patchcords, reducing insertion loss and manual cleaning. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) is available for real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature where the host supports the feature. The pre-assembled design simplifies installation and reduces maintenance compared with discrete fibre assemblies.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links (10GBASE-SR) over multimode fibre up to 50 m
• High-speed InfiniBand or storage network interconnects between SFP+ ports
• Inter-rack or intra-rack server, switch and storage connections in data centres

Key specifications

• Length: 50 m
• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+ (male/male)
• Transmission mode: Multimode fibre, active optical cable
• Supported data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s per link (10GBASE-SR)
• Colour: Aqua
• Digital diagnostic monitoring: supported (DDM/DOM, if host supports SFF-8472)

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into matching SFP+ ports on the devices to be connected, ensuring correct orientation and that the host devices support SFP+ AOC modules. Verify link status through the device management interface and, if available, access DDM/DOM parameters to confirm operating conditions such as temperature and optical power. No additional transceivers or patchcord assembly is required; handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends at the cable ends.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium multimode fibre runs up to 50 m within racks or between adjacent racks. Ensure the connected equipment explicitly supports SFP+ active optical cables and, when using DDM/DOM features, verify host compatibility to access diagnostic parameters. Avoid bending below the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and keep connector interfaces free of dust during installation.
