The Infiniband CX4 Gigabit Infiniband Cable of 8 pairs copper and each channel is tested to reach speeds of 2.5Gb/per second. For 4X SDR the total combined speed of 8 pairs reach 20 to 30 Gb/per second. As for the DDR (Double Data Rate), speeds reach up to 6.5 Gb/per second for each individual channel and 8 pairs produce speeds that reach a sum of 30 to 60 Gb/s. These cables are used to connect serial atta ched SCSI HBAs to external SAS disk arrays.The passive copper cables provide robust connections up to eight meters in length and require no power from the connector. The CX4 Gigabit Infiniband Cable for $50.00 are a thinner alternative to the passive six and eight meter cables, and are available up to 15 meters in length. All cables have easy to read serial numbers printed at each end to facilitate installation and network debug.
