SFP+ Active Twinax Cable CBO JD096B-BL 1 m Male-to-Male 10 Gbit/s

SFP+ CBO JD096B-BL is a 1 m active twinax direct-attach cable with male-to-male SFP+ connectors supporting 10 Gbit/s data rates. Designed for short-range, high-speed connections between SFP+ ports in switches, servers and storage, it provides a compact, low-latency link suitable for rack-level interconnects and switch stacking. The cable integrates active components to maintain signal integrity over the one-metre length while keeping power consumption and footprint low.

Advantages

This active twinax cable delivers reliable 10 Gbit/s performance with low latency and simplified cabling compared with separate transceivers and fibre. The male-to-male SFP+ form factor enables direct connection to SFP+ ports without additional modules, reducing total cost of ownership and installation time. Active electronics ensure stable signal quality across the short reach, and the compact 1 m length reduces cable clutter in dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• Short-distance server-to-switch connections within a rack or between adjacent racks
• Switch stacking and top-of-rack network aggregation
• High-performance storage networking and SAN uplinks
• Environments requiring low-latency, high-throughput 10 Gbit/s links

Key specifications

• Connector type: male-to-male SFP+
• Cable type: active twinax (direct-attach)
• Length: 1 metre
• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Typical reach: short-range, rack-level interconnects
• Designed for low latency and optimized signal integrity

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices support direct-attach SFP+ copper cables and that ports are configured for 10 Gbit/s operation. No separate transceivers, patch panels or fibre handling are required; the cable establishes a direct electrical link. Monitor port status and link speed via device management interfaces to confirm successful negotiation.

Usage recommendations

Avoid tight bends and excessive strain on the cable to maintain signal integrity. For best performance, use the cable for short, intra-rack or adjacent-rack connections and verify device compatibility with SFP+ active twinax attachments. Store and route the cable away from high-power cabling to reduce potential interference.
