InfiniBand/fibre optic cable NETGEAR AXC7615 15 m SFP+

The NETGEAR AXC7615 is a 15 m SFP+ grade InfiniBand/fibre optic direct attach cable designed for 10G network links between SFP+ devices such as switches, servers and storage. This active optical DAC combines SFP+ compatible connectors with a duplex fiber assembly to deliver a low-latency, energy-efficient and low-cost cabling option for high-bandwidth environments. NETGEAR modules and direct attach cables are covered by a limited 5-year hardware warranty.

Advantages

The AXC7615 offers 15 meters of reach with SFP+ male-to-male connectors for straightforward plug-and-play installation. As an active optical direct attach cable it provides lower power consumption and longer distance than passive copper DACs while maintaining SFP+ compatibility and minimal latency. The robust construction and standardized connectors ensure reliable operation in data center and enterprise network deployments.

Suitable for

• 10G links between SFP+ network switches
• Server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Storage area network (SAN) interconnects
• High-bandwidth inter-rack cabling up to 15 m

Key specifications

• Model: NETGEAR AXC7615 (MPN: AXC7615-10000S, EAN: 606449129816)
• Length: 15 m
• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the SFP+ port of the devices to be connected (switch, server or storage array) until the connector latches. Ensure both devices support 10G SFP+ connections and compatible transceiver settings. No additional power or transceivers are required; the active cable handles optical conversion internally. Verify link lights and network configuration on connected devices to confirm an active 10G link.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, route the AXC7615 without sharp bends and avoid excessive tensile stress. Use in environments within the manufacturer’s specified temperature and handling limits and pair with SFP+-compatible ports verified by NETGEAR or the equipment vendor for full interoperability.
