Broadbe Direct Attach Cable 10G 1m

The Broadbe Direct Attach Cable 10G 1m is a high-performance copper twinax cable engineered for rapid data transmission within modern network infrastructures. Measuring one meter in length, this cable is specifically designed to facilitate seamless connectivity between networking hardware such as switches, routers, and servers located in close proximity, such as within the same or adjacent server racks.

This cable offers significant advantages for data center environments by providing a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative to optical transceivers for short-reach connections. Its design minimizes signal latency and power consumption, ensuring stable and reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance. The robust construction ensures durability and consistent signal integrity, making it a dependable component for high-density networking setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and routers within a server rack
• Linking servers to top-of-rack switches
• Short-reach data center interconnects
• High-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet network environments

This cable may not be suitable for long-distance networking requirements, as its physical properties are optimized for short-reach connections within a single rack or adjacent racks. It is also not compatible with equipment that requires fiber optic interfaces without the use of appropriate media converters.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1 meter
• Data transfer rate: 10 Gbps
• Interface type: Direct Attach Copper (DAC)
• Cable type: Twinax
• Application: 10 Gigabit Ethernet

To use this cable, simply insert the connectors into the SFP+ ports of your networking devices. Ensure that the equipment is powered off or that the ports are configured to support direct attach cables before insertion. Once connected, the devices should automatically recognize the link, allowing for immediate data transmission without the need for additional configuration.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking equipment supports SFP+ direct attach copper cables
• Measure the required distance between your devices to ensure one meter is sufficient
• Check for port compatibility on both ends of the connection

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius and avoid placing excessive tension on the connectors. Keep the cable away from sources of electromagnetic interference to maintain signal quality.
