Our passive SFP+ 10G DAC Twinax cable is a low-cost alternative to RJ45 and fiber optic cables, with energy efficiency and low latency.
It is an excellent choice for short-haul structured cabling between switches and routers on one side and servers and storage on the other, whether in Top of Rack (ToR), Adjacent Rack, 10G stacking switches or similar applications.
No heat generation and suitable for extreme ambient temperatures - ideal for data centersSFP+ DAC consists of twinaxial copper cable terminated to SFP+ connectors at both ends, providing electronic connectivity directly into active components.
Due to its thermal design, this passive cable consumes less than 0.
15W, which reduces your power consumption and therefore your costs.
Because it doesn't produce heat, it's much more versatile, even in extreme ambient temperatures up to 70 C°, which in turn makes it especially valuable for data centers.
Cheaper and easier to deploy than fiberDAC cabling has a comparatively simple internal structure with fewer components than fiber optic cable.
This cable structure allows for the lower purchase price and also saves you from buying separate GBIC transceivers.
This in turn makes deployment less complicated, as you have fewer components to match.
When storing used cables, unlike fiber optics, you don't have to pay as much attention to testing and cleaning before you use them again.
When you upgrade your network or replace individual parts, the cable's hot-swappable capability ensures seamless transitions.
Just keep in mind that passive DAC cables are not suitable for long-distance deployments - their transmission range is limited to 7 meters.
Please note: This passive SFP+ 10G DAC Twinax cable is designed, programmed and tested for use with HP®- / HPE® switches and routers.
