Peter,
I like your conclusion ("Infiniband is not a telecommunication port."), but
your justification defeated your conclusion.  You stated that "It's akin to an
ethernet port."  However, CISPR22 clearly identifies "local area networks
(e.g. Ethernet, Token Ring, etc.) and similar networks" as a
telecommunications/network port in its definition.  Therefore, Ethernet is a
telecommunications/network port and must be conducted emissions tested.  My
point is that Infiniband cannot run on long cables (100 foot or more plus
infrastructure to go building, campus and worldwide through
hubs/switches/routers).

                Would it be correct to not classify Infiniband as a 
                telecommunications/network port under CISPR22?
