Cable DAC HPE Aruba Networking 10G SFP+ a SFP+ 3m J9283D

HPE Aruba Networking 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 3m DAC cable J9283D is a direct attach copper (DAC) cable designed for 10 Gigabit SFP+ links. The 3 m cable has SFP+ male connectors on both ends and is intended for short-range, high-speed connections between switches, servers and storage. It offers low latency and low power consumption and serves as a cost-effective alternative to optical transceivers for rack-to-rack or chassis interconnects.

Advantages

The HPE Aruba J9283D delivers plug-and-play compatibility with selected switches and network devices, providing reliable 10G connectivity with minimal configuration. Its copper construction reduces power use compared with optical solutions and enables low-latency links for data centre and server environments. The fixed 3 m length simplifies cable management for short-distance connections.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10G connections between network switches
• Server-to-switch links in rack environments
• Storage area network interconnects within a rack or adjacent racks
• Environments where cost-effective alternatives to optics are required

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the network devices until the latch clicks. Ensure both devices support 10G SFP+ DAC cables and are listed as compatible in the switch or server documentation. No additional drivers or transceivers are required; the cable is plug-and-play for supported hardware. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it to maintain proper airflow in racks.

Recommendations

Use this 3 m DAC cable for short, direct 10G links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Verify compatibility with the specific HPE/Aruba switch or server model before deployment and avoid exceeding the recommended bend radius to maintain signal integrity.
