Cable DAC CBO para Alcatel‑Lucent OS6860, 200 cm cable de red de cobre de conexión directa

Direct-attach copper (DAC) cable CBO for Alcatel‑Lucent OS6860 is a 200 cm ready-to-use network cable designed for short-range, high-speed connections. Manufactured by BlueOptics, this cable provides a low-latency, plug-and-play physical link suitable for connecting switches, servers and other rack-mounted network equipment. Its fixed twinax copper construction eliminates the need for separate transceivers and simplifies deployment in data center topologies where reliable, cost-efficient cabling is required.

Advantages

The DAC cable offers reduced total cost compared with separate optics and transceivers, and delivers predictable latency and power efficiency due to its copper twinax design. Its 200 cm length is optimized for within-rack and adjacent-rack connections, minimizing excess cable slack while keeping ports accessible. The cable is factory-terminated for consistent signal integrity and supports straightforward hot-plug installation into compatible Alcatel‑Lucent OS6860 switch ports.

Suitable for

• Switch-to-switch connections within a rack or between adjacent racks
• Switch-to-server links in rack-mounted deployments
• Top-of-rack and middle-of-row data center cabling
• Environments where low latency and predictable electrical performance are required

Key specifications

• Connector type: direct-attach twinax copper (fixed cable with plug ends)
• Cable length: 200 cm
• Application: short-range, high-speed network interconnects
• Compatibility: designed for use with Alcatel‑Lucent OS6860 switch ports and similar compatible network devices
• Construction: factory-terminated twinax copper for consistent signal performance

How to use

Power down is not required for installation in most modern switches; align the plug ends with the corresponding ports on the Alcatel‑Lucent OS6860 or compatible device and insert until fully seated. Verify link status via the switch management interface or port LEDs. For removal, depress the release latch (if present) and pull the connector straight out to avoid damaging the port. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain recommended bend radius to preserve electrical characteristics.

Recommendations

Use this 200 cm DAC cable for short, direct connections where cost-efficiency and low latency are priorities. Avoid running the cable near strong electromagnetic interference sources and do not exceed the intended reach for reliable performance. For longer distances or fiber-based network segments, consider optical transceivers and fiber cabling instead.
