Product Features
Technical Overview
This direct attach cable operates at a data transfer rate of 10 Gbit/s, supporting high-bandwidth applications such as storage area networks, virtualization, and cloud computing. The passive design means it does not require external power, simplifying installation and reducing points of failure. The twinaxial construction provides robust shielding against electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable performance in dense network setups.
The SFP+ connectors on both ends are keyed for secure insertion and removal, with a locking mechanism that prevents accidental disconnections. The cable's compact and flexible jacket allows for easy routing in tight spaces, such as rack cabinets or cable management trays. With a weight of approximately 3.20 oz (90.72 g), it adds minimal load to network infrastructure.
Key Product Advantages
This cable offers several advantages for network professionals seeking reliable and high-performance connectivity solutions. Its direct attach design reduces latency and power consumption compared to active optical cables, while the passive twinax construction ensures durability and long-term reliability in demanding environments.

Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is ideal for connecting switches to servers, storage arrays, or other networking equipment within rack enclosures or adjacent cabinets. Its 3.3-foot length makes it suitable for top-of-rack deployments where short, tidy cable runs are essential for airflow and maintenance access.
Common use cases include data center interconnects, high-performance computing clusters, and enterprise network upgrades. It can also be used in virtualization environments to link hypervisors with shared storage, or in financial trading systems where low latency is critical. The passive design and copper construction make it a cost-effective choice for distances up to 10 meters, though this specific model is optimized for shorter runs.
Physical Profile
The cable features a slim and flexible twinax jacket that resists kinking and abrasion, ensuring longevity in high-density installations. With a length of 3.3 feet (1 meter), it provides just enough reach for typical rack-mounted configurations without excess cable clutter. The lightweight design at 3.20 oz (90.72 g) minimizes strain on SFP+ ports, and the connectors are reinforced for repeated insertions and removals during maintenance or reconfigurations.
