Lanview MO-UDC-1 SFP+ to SFP+ Direct Attach Copper Cable 1m Black

The Lanview MO-UDC-1 is a 1-meter SFP+ to SFP+ direct attach copper cable engineered for high-speed data transmission within professional networking environments. This cable features male connectors on both ends, offering a reliable and efficient physical link between switches, servers, and other network hardware components. It serves as an effective solution for short-range data center interconnects, maintaining stable performance and low latency for demanding infrastructure requirements.

Advantages

This direct attach copper cable provides a cost-effective alternative to optical transceivers for short-distance connections. By utilizing a pre-terminated copper assembly, it ensures a plug-and-play experience that eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fiber patch cords. The design minimizes signal loss and power consumption, contributing to a more efficient and organized rack environment while supporting high-bandwidth data throughput.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches to servers within the same rack
• High-speed data center interconnects
• Short-range network hardware links
• Top-of-rack switching applications

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for long-distance networking, as its performance is optimized for short-range connections within a single rack or adjacent cabinets. It is also not compatible with equipment that does not feature SFP+ ports.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1 meter
• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
• Cable type: Direct Attach Copper (DAC)
• Compatibility: SFP+ networking hardware

How to use

To install the cable, ensure that both the switch and the server are powered on or prepared for hardware insertion. Align the SFP+ connector with the port on your networking device and insert it until it clicks into place. The connection is established immediately upon insertion, as the cable is designed for hot-swappable use. Ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the distance between your network devices is within the 1-meter range
• Confirm that your hardware ports support SFP+ connectivity
• Check for compatibility with your specific switch or server manufacturer requirements

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends or excessive tension on the cable during installation. Ensure that the SFP+ ports are clean and free of debris before inserting the connectors to maintain a stable data link.
