## Summary description

BlueOptics 10GBASE-CR passive Direct Attach Cable (DAC) with SFP+ connectors on both ends, 1 meter length and AWG30 conductor. Compatible with systems using 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper (10GBASE-CR). Suited for server-to-switch and switch-to-switch short-reach connections in racks and data centers where low-cost, low-latency copper links are required.

## Long description

BlueOptics 10GBASE-CR passive Direct Attach Cable (DAC) is a 1 m SFP+ to SFP+ copper cable designed for short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. The cable uses AWG30 conductors and SFP+ connectors on both ends to provide a low-latency, low-power alternative to optical transceivers for links inside racks and between adjacent switches or servers in data center environments. It supports 10GBASE-CR signaling over copper and is intended for direct server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections where cost efficiency and compact cabling are priorities.
Advantages
This BlueOptics DAC offers reduced power consumption and lower latency compared with optical modules plus transceivers, along with a simplified installation process thanks to integrated SFP+ connectors. Its passive design eliminates the need for additional power or cooling associated with active cables. The 1 m length and AWG30 conductor provide a balance between flexibility and signal integrity for short rack or cabinet runs.
Suitable for
 Server-to-switch connections in single racks
 Switch-to-switch stacking or interconnects in close proximity
 Top-of-rack and end-of-row short-reach links in data centers
 Environments requiring low-latency, low-power 10 Gigabit Ethernet
Key specifications
 Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
 Cable type: Passive copper direct attach cable (DAC)
 Length: 1 meter
 Conductor gauge: AWG30
 Supported standard: 10GBASE-CR (10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper)
 Typical applications: Short-reach rack and data center interconnects
How to use
Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices support 10GBASE-CR or passive SFP+ DAC connectivity and that ports are enabled in the device configuration. Avoid excessive bending or kinking of the cable during routing; keep the run within the supported 1 m length and secure the cable to avoid strain on the connectors. No separate power or transceiver modules are required.
Usage recommendations
Verify device compatibility with passive SFP+ DACs before deployment and check link negotiation settings on switches and servers. For optimal performance, route the cable away from high-power or high-interference sources and maintain gentle bend radii. Replace the cable if connector damage or persistent link errors occur.
