HPE R9D19A Network Cable SFP+ InfiniBand 1m Plug/Plug

The HPE R9D19A SFP+ InfiniBand 1m Male/Male network cable is a 1 meter cable with SFP+ connectors on both ends designed for high-speed InfiniBand and fibre optic connections. Manufactured by HP Enterprise and identified by MPN R9D19A (EAN 190017566962), this cable is intended to provide reliable, short-reach connectivity between compatible SFP+ ports in data center and enterprise networking environments. Its male-to-male SFP+ termination supports insertion into SFP+ cages or modules for direct link connections where supported by the device.

Advantages

This HPE R9D19A cable provides a standardized SFP+ interface for consistent mechanical and electrical compatibility with SFP+ ports. At a 1 m length it minimizes signal attenuation and simplifies cabling in dense rack environments, while the male-to-male configuration allows direct connection between SFP+ transceivers or ports. Being an HP Enterprise part ensures traceable identification via the MPN and EAN for procurement and inventory management.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports between servers, switches, and storage appliances within the same rack or adjacent racks
• Short-reach InfiniBand or fibre optic links requiring SFP+ termination
• Data center environments where OEM-compatible cabling and part tracking (MPN/EAN) are required

How to use

Install the HPE R9D19A by aligning each SFP+ connector with the corresponding SFP+ port on your devices and gently inserting until the connector latches. Ensure devices are powered and configured to recognize the link according to the vendor-specific network settings. Use compatible SFP+ cages or modules; if using transceiver modules, confirm both ends support the same link type and speed. Route the 1 m cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with your equipment's SFP+ ports and firmware before deployment. For optimal performance, avoid excessive bending radii, protect connectors from dust when disconnected, and follow your data center's cable management and grounding practices. Use the MPN (R9D19A) or EAN (190017566962) when ordering replacements to ensure an exact match.
