## Long description

HP Enterprise R4G18A is a 0.5 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with SFP connectors on both ends. Designed for short-reach interconnects in data centers and server racks, this cable enables high-speed links between SFP-compatible ports on switches, host adapters and storage devices. Its half-meter length is intended for compact rack layouts and close equipment placement where reliable low-latency connectivity is required.
Advantages
This InfiniBand/fibre optic cable provides a compact physical footprint and straightforward SFP-to-SFP connectivity, reducing clutter in dense rack environments. The short 0.5 m length minimizes signal loss and latency compared with longer runs, and the use of standard SFP interfaces ensures compatibility with a wide range of networking and storage equipment that accept SFP modules. The cable is intended for consistent performance in short interconnect scenarios and simplifies cabling management in constrained spaces.
Suitable for
Short-reach connections between switches in the same rack or adjacent racks
Direct links from host bus adapters to storage arrays or servers
High-density rack installations with limited cable routing space
Key specifications
Connection type: SFP to SFP
Physical medium: InfiniBand / fibre optic
Length: 0.5 m
Intended use: short-reach, low-latency interconnects in data center and rack environments
Compatibility: SFP-compatible ports on networking and storage devices
How to use
Connect each SFP connector to the corresponding SFP port on the devices being linked, ensuring connectors are fully seated and locking mechanisms (if present) are engaged. Use the cable for intra-rack or adjacent-rack connections where a 0.5 m length provides sufficient reach. Verify port configuration and link status on the connected devices after installation. For best results, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it to reduce stress on connectors.
Usage recommendations
Use this 0.5 m SFP InfiniBand/fibre cable for short, high-performance links within racks or between adjacent racks. Avoid stretching the cable or bending it beyond manufacturer-recommended bend radius. Confirm SFP compatibility and port settings on connected equipment before deployment to ensure proper link negotiation and performance.
