## Summary description

HP J9285B is a 7 m Direct Attach Cable (DAC) with SFP+ connectors on both ends for high-speed 10GbE or compatible links. The passive SFP+ to SFP+ copper/fixed cable provides a short-reach interconnect between switches, servers or storage devices supporting SFP+ ports. Use it for rack-to-rack or intra-rack connections where a fixed-length DAC is required.

## Long description

HP 7 m Direct Attach Cable with SFP+ connectors is a factory-terminated copper twinax cable designed for short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet interconnects. The fixed-length SFP+ to SFP+ assembly provides a low-latency, low-power physical connection between SFP+ ports on switches, servers or storage systems. This 7-m cable is intended for rack-to-rack or intra-rack links where a permanent, cost-efficient copper solution is appropriate.
Advantages
The fixed SFP+ to SFP+ copper assembly offers predictable electrical performance with minimal configuration required: plug the connectors into compatible SFP+ ports and the link is established. Compared with fiber optics, this direct attach solution has lower power consumption and typically lower cost for short distances. The 7 m length allows flexible placement across racks or within larger chassis arrays while maintaining the signal integrity expected for 10GbE-class links.
Suitable for
 Rack-to-rack 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data center topologies
 Intra-rack links between switches, blade servers or storage enclosures
 Short-reach high-throughput connections where SFP+ ports are available
 Cost-sensitive deployments prioritizing low latency and low power
Key specifications
 Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+ (fixed/captive connectors)
 Cable type: Passive twinax copper
 Nominal length: 7 meters
 Supported speed: 10 Gbps class links (10 Gigabit Ethernet compatible)
 Use case: Short-reach interconnects (rack-to-rack, intra-rack)
How to use
Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on two devices until the latch engages, ensuring both devices support passive DAC connections. Verify link status on both endpoints and configure network settings on switches or servers as required for your environment. No additional transceivers or fiber patching are needed; the cable is factory-terminated and intended for direct plug-and-play installation in compatible SFP+ ports.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain near the connectors, maintain rack airflow clearance, and confirm compatibility with the SFP+ port vendor and firmware. Use this 7 m passive DAC where distance, power consumption and budget make copper direct-attach the preferred option.
