BlueOptics MCP2102-X002A Compatible BlueLAN Cable Direct Attach SFP+ 10GBASE-CR pasivo, 2m, AWG30

The BlueOptics MCP2102-X002A-BL is a high-performance, cost-effective direct attach cable (DAC) designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. This passive copper twinax cable provides a reliable, low-latency connection for data center, server-to-switch, and storage area network (SAN) applications. Fully compatible with Mellanox MCP2102-X002A and MSA compliant, it ensures seamless integration into existing network infrastructures.

Advantages

This BlueLAN DAC offers significant advantages over traditional fiber optic transceivers and cables. Its passive design consumes less than 0.1W of power, reducing overall energy costs. The copper twinax construction provides excellent signal integrity over short distances, while the SFP+ form factor allows for high-density port configurations. With a 2-meter length and AWG30 gauge, it is ideal for rack-to-rack or intra-rack connections.
