Cable de cobre pasivo SFP+ Direct Attach CBO SFP-10GE-DAC-5M 5 m

Passive SFP+ Direct Attach Copper Cable CBO SFP-10GE-DAC-5M 5 m is a 5‑meter twinax copper cable engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links between SFP+ ports. Designed for short‑reach connections inside racks and within data centre topologies, this passive DAC delivers a direct wired connection between switches, servers and network appliances that support SFP+ interfaces. The cable offers a compact form factor, low latency and predictable performance for high‑speed, short‑distance interconnects.

Advantages

The passive twinax design provides a cost‑efficient solution compared with active modules and optical transceivers for short distances. As a direct attach copper cable it consumes no additional power for signal conversion, reducing energy usage and heat generation. Its fixed 5 m length simplifies cable planning and routing in rack environments, and the SFP+ connectors ensure compatibility with standard SFP+ ports on networking equipment. The cable is suitable for low‑latency, high‑throughput applications where simplicity and reliability are priorities.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the SFP+ port of the devices to be linked until the latch engages, taking care to align the keyed connector properly. Ensure both network devices are powered off or follow hot‑swap guidance from the equipment manufacturer if connecting live. After insertion, verify link status on both devices and configure interfaces as required in the network management software. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain proper airflow within racks.

Recommendations

Use this 5 m passive DAC for short horizontal interconnects where fibre transceivers are unnecessary. Avoid exceeding the specified bend radius and keep the cable clear of high‑temperature zones. For runs beyond the recommended short‑reach distance, consider active DACs or optical transceivers with appropriate optics.
