Lenovo 00YL640 5M SFP+ Male to SFP+ Male Active Optic Cable

The Lenovo 00YL640 is a fiber optic cable that measures 5 meters and carries an active design with SFP+ male connectors on both ends. It delivers high-speed data between network devices or servers while preserving signal integrity across its full 16.4-foot length.

By integrating signal conversion into the cable, this active optical link minimizes attenuation and reduces latency, making it a practical alternative to passive copper solutions for short-distance connections inside modern data centers.

The cable fits naturally in Lenovo Flex System deployments and any environment that relies on standard SFP+ ports, including switches, storage arrays, and network interface cards. Administrators can use it to wire servers to top of rack switches, interconnect aggregation switches in adjacent racks, or build high-performance clusters where clean, reliable throughput is essential.

Installation is straightforward: seat each SFP+ end in a compatible port, verify the link light, and the connection is ready. No additional transceivers or patch panels are needed, which keeps cabling simple and reduces potential points of failure.

Highlights:

• 5-meter fiber optic cable with active signal conversion
• SFP+ male to SFP+ male connectors on both ends
• Maintains high-speed data integrity across the full length
• Compatible with standard SFP+ ports, including Lenovo Flex System servers
• Ideal for short in-rack or adjacent rack connections in data centers and enterprise networks
