FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this cable?
This cable supports a data transfer rate of 10 Gbit/s, making it suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. It provides high-bandwidth connectivity for demanding network tasks such as data center interconnects, server-to-switch links, and backbone connections.
What devices is this cable compatible with?
The cable is compatible with Brocade switches and routers, as well as other network devices, routers, and switches that feature SFP+ ports. It is designed for direct attachment without requiring separate transceivers, simplifying deployment in various network environments.
What does 'passive DAC' mean for this cable?
Passive DAC stands for Direct Attach Copper cable with a passive design. This means the cable does not contain active electronics for signal amplification, resulting in lower power consumption, reduced heat output, and cost savings compared to active cables. It is ideal for short-distance links up to a few meters.
How long is the cable and what is it best used for?
The cable is 1.6 ft (0.5 meters) long, making it ideal for very short-distance connections such as within a single rack or between adjacent racks in data centers. It is perfect for linking switches to routers, connecting top-of-rack switches, or establishing high-speed interconnects in compact network setups.
