Cable DAC BlueLAN compatible con BlueOptics 95Y0323, SFP+ a SFP+, pasivo, 10 Gbit/s, 1 m, negro (95Y0323-BL)

The DAC cable CBO 95Y0323 10 m from BlueOptics is a direct-attach copper high-speed interconnect designed for use with IBM and Lenovo compatible network and storage equipment. This 10-metre passive copper cable provides a fixed wired connection that delivers low latency and high bandwidth for short- to medium-range links between switches, servers and storage systems. It is intended for data centre top-of-rack and rack-to-rack cabling where a robust, cost-effective copper alternative to active optical cables is appropriate.

Advantages

The cable offers a simple plug-and-play deployment with no additional transceivers required, reducing component count and power consumption in rack environments. Its passive copper construction provides predictable latency and high signal integrity for short distances, and the 10 m length supports flexible placement of equipment within and across adjacent racks. The cable is compatible with common form factors used in enterprise switching and storage hardware and is suitable for environments that prioritise reliability and straightforward physical connectivity.

Suitable for

• Rack-to-rack connections in data centres
• Top-of-rack switch uplinks and server interconnects
• Short- to medium-range storage area network links
• Environments where passive copper interconnects are preferred over active optical solutions

Key specifications

• Cable type: Direct Attach Copper (DAC), passive
• Length: 10 metres
• Compatibility: Designed for IBM and Lenovo compatible network and storage ports
• Performance characteristics: High bandwidth, low latency for short-range links
• Typical use environment: Data centre rack and server rooms

How to use

Insert each connector end into the corresponding compatible port on the switch, server or storage device until the connector latches. Ensure power to equipment is managed according to your site procedures before rearranging connections. After installation, verify link status and negotiated speed via the device management interface or indicator LEDs. For multi-vendor environments confirm port compatibility and supported link speeds in device documentation prior to deployment.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain bend radii recommended for copper interconnects. Keep the cable away from sources of electromagnetic interference and ensure connections are not under mechanical stress. Use cable management within racks to prevent strain and preserve signal integrity over the 10 m span.
