Cable SFP+ BlueOptics SFP-10G-DAC-0.5M 0,5 m conector macho/conector macho

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-DAC-0.5M 0.5m Male/Male is a 0.5 meter direct attach copper (DAC) SFP+ cable designed for short-reach, high-speed connections between switches, servers and network interface cards. The assembly uses SFP+ form-factor male connectors on both ends and a fixed braided jacket to deliver stable 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data center and enterprise rack environments. The cable colour is black and the compact length minimises signal loss and cabling clutter in dense installations.

Advantages

This SFP+ cable provides a cost-effective, low-latency connection for 10GbE ports without the need for optical transceivers or separate fibre cabling. The integrated male SFP+ connectors ensure mechanical compatibility with standard SFP+ ports and simplify installation. Its short 0.5 m length is suited to top-of-rack and adjacent-rack connections, reducing cable bulk while maintaining signal integrity. The construction offers reliable electrical performance and is suitable for continuous operation in typical networking environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting 10GbE switch-to-switch links within the same rack
• Direct links from servers to network interface cards (NICs) or servers to top-of-rack switches
• Short-reach connections in data centres, server rooms and testing labs

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Cable type: Direct attach copper (DAC)
• Nominal length: 0.5 m
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet capable
• Colour: Black

How to use

Ensure both devices support SFP+ direct attach copper connections and that ports are powered down or follow your equipment hot-plug guidelines. Insert each male SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port until it seats and the latch engages. After connection, verify link status through device LEDs or management interfaces and configure network settings as required. For removal, depress the latch and pull the connector straight out to avoid bending or damaging the port.

Recommendations

Use the 0.5 m BlueOptics SFP-10G-DAC-0.5M for short, high-bandwidth links where optical transceivers are not necessary. Keep bends gentle and avoid excessive tension on the cable; operate within the equipment manufacturer’s temperature and handling guidelines to maintain reliable 10GbE performance.
