Cable Twinax SFP+ CBO BlueOptics 2032247-3-BL 3 m macho a macho 10 Gbit/s

CBO SFP+ BlueOptics 2032247-3-BL 3 m Male-to-Male 10 Gbit/s Twinax Cable is a direct-attach copper cable engineered for short-range 10 Gbit/s connections between SFP+ ports. With a 3 meter length and male-to-male SFP+ terminations, the cable provides a low-latency, energy-efficient link suited to dense rack environments where reliable high-speed interconnects are required. The design targets seamless interoperability with switches, servers and storage devices that accept SFP+ direct-attach copper assemblies.

Advantages

This twinax cable delivers 10 Gbit/s bandwidth with minimal signal degradation over its 3 m reach and offers plug-and-play installation without additional transceivers or optics. The male SFP+ connectors allow straightforward insertion into compatible SFP+ ports, reducing setup time and avoiding the need for spare optical modules. The copper construction yields lower power consumption compared to active optical alternatives and ensures stable, low-latency performance for short-distance links in datacenter and network racks.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting SFP+ ports on top-of-rack and leaf switches
• Connecting servers to top-of-rack or aggregation switches
• Short-distance links between storage arrays and servers
• High-density cabling in network racks and blade chassis

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Cable type: Twinax direct-attach copper
• Connector type: Male-to-male SFP+ terminations
• Length: 3 m
• Typical use: Short-range, rack-level interconnects
• Latency: Low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications

How to use

Insert each male SFP+ connector into the SFP+ port of the network devices you wish to link, ensuring a secure, fully seated connection. No additional configuration or optical transceivers are required; once the cable is connected the devices should negotiate the link automatically at 10 Gbit/s if both ports support the same speed and mode. For best results, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and compressive forces and ensure connectors are free of debris before insertion.

Recommendations

Use this 3 m twinax cable for short, direct connections inside racks or between adjacent racks. Avoid extended runs beyond the specified length and replace the cable if connectors show sign of wear. For mixed-distance or longer links, consider optical transceivers and fiber cabling instead.
