Product Features
Technical Overview
This cable adheres to the 10GBASE-CU standard, supporting data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s over copper twinaxial media. The SFP+ connectors on both ends are male-type, designed for plug-and-play connectivity with SFP+ ports on switches, routers, and servers. The passive design eliminates the need for external power, reducing complexity and heat generation in dense network setups.
With a length of 3.3 ft, it is ideal for rack-to-rack or within-rack connections where short distances require high-speed performance. The twinaxial cable type provides excellent shielding against electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable data transmission in environments with multiple active devices.
