FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this Axiom DAC cable?
This Axiom 1200484G10-AX cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gbit/s, making it suitable for gigabit Ethernet applications. The twinaxial construction maintains signal integrity at this speed over the full 32.8-foot cable length, providing reliable performance for network connections between SFP-equipped devices.
Are both ends of this cable the same connector type?
Yes, both ends feature identical SFP Network male connectors. This symmetrical design simplifies installation and ensures consistent connectivity between compatible SFP ports on network switches, routers, servers, and other equipment. The connectors are pre-terminated for plug-and-play deployment without requiring separate transceivers.
What does 'passive DAC' mean for this network cable?
Passive DAC (Direct Attach Cable) indicates that this cable does not contain active electronics or require external power. The signal transmission relies solely on the twinaxial copper conductors, making it simpler and more reliable than active cables. This passive design reduces points of failure and eliminates power requirements while maintaining 1 Gbit/s performance over the 32.8-foot length.
Is this cable specifically compatible with Adtran equipment?
Yes, this Axiom 1200484G10-AX cable is designed for Adtran compatibility. It has been engineered to work reliably with Adtran network switches, routers, and other devices featuring SFP ports. This makes it an ideal choice for networks built around Adtran infrastructure where guaranteed compatibility is important for stable operations.
