Product Features
Technical Overview
This direct attach cable utilizes a twinaxial (twinax) design with 30 AWG copper conductors, optimized for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The passive construction means it operates without active electronics, reducing power consumption and heat generation while maintaining signal integrity over its 1-meter span. The cable supports the 10GBase-CU standard, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of SFP+ equipped network devices from major vendors.
The SFP+ connectors provide a hot-pluggable interface that locks securely into place, preventing accidental disconnections. The cable's design emphasizes durability and performance, with a focus on minimizing signal loss and crosstalk in high-density networking environments.

Deployment / Use Cases
This direct attach cable is well-suited for a variety of networking scenarios where short-range, high-speed connections are needed. Its 1-meter length makes it perfect for interconnecting devices within the same rack or cabinet, such as linking switches to servers, storage arrays, or other networking equipment in data centers, server rooms, or enterprise IT closets.
Common use cases include top-of-rack switching, spine-leaf architectures in hyper-converged infrastructure, and connecting network interface cards (NICs) in high-performance workstations. The cable's compatibility with standard SFP+ ports ensures it works seamlessly with a broad range of network devices, from switches and routers to adapters and transceivers, providing a flexible solution for expanding or upgrading network capacity.
Data Center Interconnects
Use for short-distance links between switches and servers in rack-mounted setups, optimizing space and reducing cable clutter while maintaining 10G speeds.
Enterprise Networking
Ideal for connecting network equipment in office environments, supporting applications like video conferencing, large file transfers, and cloud access with reliable throughput.
Physical Profile
The cable has a compact and lightweight design, weighing approximately 3.20 ounces (90.72 grams), which makes it easy to handle and route in tight spaces. Its 3.3-foot (1-meter) length provides just enough reach for most short-distance connections without excess slack, helping to maintain a clean and organized cable management system. The copper construction ensures flexibility for bending around corners or through cable trays, while the SFP+ connectors feature a durable latch mechanism for secure attachment.
