InfiniBand/fibre optic cable Lenovo 90Y9433 5 m SFP+ — 5 m length, SFP+ connectors, black

The Lenovo 90Y9433 is a 5-metre InfiniBand/fibre optic cable equipped with SFP+ connectors on both ends, designed for high-throughput connections in server rooms and network infrastructures. The cable provides a 5 m reach with a black outer jacket for discreet installations. It is intended for linking SFP+ ports on switches, host bus adapters and servers where stable, low-latency data transmission is required.

Advantages

This cable offers a combination of high-speed optical transmission and compatibility with SFP+ interfaces, enabling reliable data transfers across a 5 m span. The black jacket provides a professional appearance and helps conceal cabling within racks and conduits. Durable construction supports continuous operation in data centre environments and reduces the need for frequent replacements.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports on switches and network adapters
• Linking servers within racks over short to mid-range distances
• High-performance computing and storage networks using InfiniBand or fibre protocols
• Data centre cabling where discreet, durable connections are required

Key specifications

• Cable type: InfiniBand / fibre optic
• Connector type: SFP+ on both ends
• Length: 5 m
• Color: black outer jacket
• Use case: high-speed, low-latency data links for networking and servers

How to use

Ensure both devices support SFP+ modules and compatible optical transceivers before connecting. Handle the cable by the connector boots and avoid bending the fibre beyond the manufacturer's recommended radius. Insert each SFP+ connector into the device port until it latches, then verify link status via the network or host interface. For disconnection, release the latch mechanism on the SFP+ connector before pulling straight out to prevent damage.

Usage recommendations

Route the cable within cable management channels or rack organisers to minimise stress and reduce bend points. Maintain a clean environment for optical interfaces: keep protective caps on unused connectors and inspect connectors for contamination before insertion. Use within supported temperature and humidity ranges specified by connected equipment to ensure stable performance.
